Doom and Gloom

Lettuce pray
for I can eat no lettuce today.
No Cos, no Iceberg, no Loose leaf.
Arugula and
Kale are beyond the pale
for alas a procedure looms
while fresh edibles are all in bloom.

It's Spring and not a green thing to eat,
what a bother
soon no red things neither.

For lunch I will munch
on the written word
compose a thing absurd
perhaps be lured
to pen a salad ballad.
