The Trouble With Forks

So far, I tried apple a la mode Trained my tongue to catch sugar's festoon Upon tines, losing sweets I was owed A fork won't cork my dessert boon Now I eat my pie with a spoon. 11/26/19

Clever, I like how you think. Besides it’s tough for one to talk with a forked tongue. Good luck in the contest.
