Not Nutella
her and i share
a savory delight
not so sweet
but peanut
butter
so sadly i set
a mouse trap
with fate
the bait
peanut
butter but better
to entice mice
then try to
catch her
for if ever
i did i'd have to
give her her
freedom
though
she
sticks to my mouth
i fear to hear
the snap but
if i did i'd
forgive
and forget
to ever
never
use
pea
nut
but
her
