Spermarket Daze

SUPERMARKET DAZE

Gross overweight reflections

Gleam off stainless steal

Frozen TV. dinners.

Obese mothers Jam

Peppermint suckers down

Their children’s tearful mouth

-temporary peace.

Hamburger helper, pepsi-lite

TV  guide, rovers dog food

-frantic search for penny full bargains.

Torn pantyhose

Wheel aisle after aisle.

 Mountains of pot pies, ice cream, potato chips

Must hurry
