Frankenbutter the Modern Snacketheus

"Any visionary poet will say to thee - 
on an empty stomach, don't write poetry." - a certain non-visionary poet

Call me daft.  Call me a nutter.
Close the door.  Shut the shutter.
Put away every cracker.
Hide me from the snacker.
I'm Dr. Franken-Peanut Butter.
