Exhausting Expirations

Our sour cream will soon expire
Going by its expiration date
What happens then, I'm left to ponder,
Will going sweet, then be its new state?

I guess then I'll have some sweet cream
In my coffee I guess it can go
But wait, has my coffee expired?
Who knows these days, with GMO?

Who wants expired coffee in their cup?
If it's expired, then doe's it go flat?
If flat, it might not fit in a cup
Then on a plate, would be where it's at!

So here's to the newest generation
To the lot of you living the dream
Enjoy your flat coffee on a plate
And don't forget your sweet, sour cream!
