Pancakes at 608

My stomach growls but I don’t want to eat
I rather create consume popcorn poetry
I ate yesterday one meal at like four
Why does my body want to eat more

I’m told by my doctor eat more meals
I don’t have a lot to eat for real 
Not that I can’t choose to shop
I prefer to pay artists and give gifts with thought

Oh boy here again on the rhyme train
It isn’t a sin and I’m not vain
But my mind is trying to grow and change
Hmmm maybe pancakes will do the thing
