Caren Krutsinger Poet Quatern

Not Bothered By Gluttony

Not bothered by gluttony, bring me pie
Warm cookies, brownies, cake, frosted and sweet
I love the good stuff, and I will not lie
Give me honey, syrup, a daily treat

I would like to try new things. I truly would.
Not bothered by gluttony, bring me pie.
If you would like to and if you would,
Orange honey biscuits please, before I die.

Just thinking of these biscuits makes me sigh.
I had one once with chamomile tea.
Not bothered by gluttony, bring me pie.
Thoroughly satisfying, they can be.

Line up your best desserts, all down the line.
Cinnamon rolls? Sure. I’ll give them a try.
My metabolism is truly fine.
Not bothered by gluttony, bring me pie.
