Forget the Scales

A fresh cream doughnut
Oozing raspberry jam, sweet
Sticky yummy, more

This is very funny; these are the kinds of fantasies I have when I'm on a diet. Personally, I would call this a senryu, but whatever you call it, well done.

My stomach just groaned, Leon. I'll probably spend the rest of the morning thinking about doughnuts. Very appetizing haiku!
