Not Wise

I sit write back and wonder why my belly rumbles and my eyes are dry. Then I look to my left and remember to see the Nut and Fruit wrappers of an eaten Cadbury. Chocolate that is. As in the whoooole bar. Not a drop of melted dark, creamy milky, square little parts, Left in the wrappers, know. I ate it all. And apparently I had a ball, because I didn't take notice, that earlier in the night I had done this, once before. ... as my belly takes a rumble and a tumble once more.... To my horror what do I see? As I turn, from the wrappers Cadbury... The plastic flash of a bag in the trash and it strikes fear, into the bowels of me... It couldn't have been that again, back when, earlier this night as I wrote in delight, words so yummy, I forgot a bag of bears or two, that were gummy? Another rumble happens at the pit of my tummy And I realize... that at 40, I might knot. Be wise.
