One Donut To Sit Upon
One donut, to sit upon,
surround the abdomen,
to sweeten the A1c; see
you later in antipathy
but the entire moment
was delicious, short-lived,
with finger and lips, licked,
and a krispy kreme coffee
at just the late hour, a peak
like pike’s to keep the heart
jumping jacks; eyes wide
open underneath shut lids
donuts and caffeine spinning,
lids open and closing - the learned
steer far from this good ship lollipop.
temple is throbbing under its spell.
there’s a donut to pay, a pain
in the knowing - soon it’ll be showing
its plan: the hasty krispy kreme or
the dunkin-kind - a sweet lambaste
don’t wear its ring
or fall for its filling
you’ll have to divorce
this goody…you can have half
