Caren Krutsinger Poet Light Verse

No More Jalapenos Sob Sob

I used to eat jalapeno peppers,
 banana peppers, and 
tomatoes galore.


Hot spicy and
 “oh my gosh” foods
 is what I simply and
 absolutely adore.


Prime rib? Okay 
but beef cake it in
 horseradish, and I mean
 straight, not in a
 dumbed down sauce.

My ulcerated esophagus
 and spastic colon 
are now apparently
 my boss.

Michelle Faulkner May 15, 2018 at 8:57 AM I can't eat pizza after 7pm or I have horrific heartburn! - guess that's the price to pay for the privilege of getting older! Caren Krutsinger May 15, 2018 at 9:07 AM I guess it is, and I'm already tired of it.
