Best Sesame Seed Poems


Premium Member 3rd Child

My story is quite simple
My husband and I had been faithfully  
Correctly using birth control for almost 13 years 
We’d forgotten it only once

 Resulting in the birth of our second child in 2005 
However, in spite of proper use
Birth control failed again in 2015
After learning I was pregnant for the 3rd time

My husband and I sat down to discuss our options 
What a new child would mean for our family 
Money was tight, our marriage was struggling, and at nearly 40 
I didn’t feel that I could handle another pregnancy and childbirth 

At the end of our discussion 
My husband said,
 “We’ve never considered this before, but do you want this child?” 
I replied simply, “No.” 

He said he didn’t either, but that he’d support any decision I made.
At the end of our discussion


Even though it was his child
He recognized that the decision was ultimately mine
Living in Nevada, we didn’t have to deal with unreasonable restrictions 
There were no protesters to meet us at the clinic 

The only obstacle we faced 
No providers in the area took my insurance
We had to pay the $500 out of pocket 
I made the appointment for that Thursday

So that I wouldn’t miss any work
Less than a week after discovering I was pregnant
At the clinic
 I received a trans-l ultrasound to verify how far along I was: 4 weeks. 

The blastocyst was about the size of a sesame seed
Exactly what it looked like 
At such an early stage
A medical abortion was my only option 

I took the first pill at the clinic 
Was told most women don’t start bleeding heavily 
Until after taking the second pill the next day
I’m not most women 

Started bleeding heavily enough 
I had to leave work early Friday 
The pain didn’t start until after I took the second pill
It hurt, but was no worse than cramps amplified by food poisoning

I was glad for the pain medication the doctor had prescribed me
Then, it was over
I bled for about 3 weeks and then everything returned to normal. 
I admit some initial doubt that we were making the correct decision

Was willing to accept that doubt 
After about a year, that doubt has disappeared 
During the process
I didn’t feel alone because my husband was right there with me

Junk Food

At McRonald's, you get what you order,
McVirgin burgers from someone's daughter,
Sluts just wanna have fun,
In a sesame seed bun!
Do you want any French fries?
Have some fertilisers and pesticides!
We're not selling these apple pies,
Because we really love you, guys, 
Here, more landfill and sulphate dioxides,
Have a nice day today,
Anyone for take away?
All in a plastic sesame bun,
Yum! Yum! Yum! Yum!

Premium Member Mcdonald's

Oh McDonald's
You’re the happy death of me
Your sweet, creamy chocolate covered 
Dip vanilla ice-cream cones are the best

Oh McDonald's
You’re the happy death of me
That Big Mac 
With double beef patties
 Double cheese
Lettuce, pickles, onions
Mingled with special recipe sauce
On a sesame seed bun
Just melts in my mouth 
For a yummy, happy tummy

Oh McDonald's
You’re the happy death of me
 Those Golden scrunches crisp French fries
Just jumps out at me 
And say,“Eat Me”
Those Golden arches are my roads sign
 For all my satisfying needs

Supermarket Sweep

I arrive in the car park it’s full of cars
Battered and bruised and covered in scars
I drive up and down seeking a place
To leave my old banger while I enter the race!
I approach the doors -  a trolley I need
Don’t forget parsley and sesame seed
Down the first aisle fresh lettuce I see,
Feeling for firmness, that’ll do me.
I turn the first corner, the trolley won’t come
A push in the back and a bruise on the bum!
Now this trolley’s fighting, it’s lost a wheel
Screeching and scraping an occasional squeal.
Pasta and pizza must not forget
And top up on brown sauce, I need some I bet.
As the trolley gets full, the fight just gets harder
But it will be worth it to top up the larder!
I pass the meat counter, a chicken I see
But I need one larger - that won’t even do me
Don’t forget stuffing it won’t be the same
And I really don’t like a brand with no name!
It’s nearly over, just beer and white wine
The latter for Mrs., the former is mine.
Now at the tills, the queue is quite short
Unload it again to pay for what’s bought
“Need help with packing?” I hear her say,
Not with the packing - I need help to pay!

Egyptian Boulders

Zulu drum
Egyptian people gather
Chant for freedom
Sesame seed music
Power to the soul
Amazing marketplace
Amazing fortress
Military gather power
Zulu drum
Mosques chant
Church goers pray
Lonely Wolf cries out
The Pyramids shake
Large question mark on the future
One thing can change they say
Egyptian boulders

Premium Member Day of Deliverables

Tonight, my soul, be still and sleep;
The storms are raging on God’s deep—
God’s deep, not yours; be still and sleep.

Charles H. Spurgeon
(Streams in the Desert)

DAY OF DELIVERABLES

italian sausage with banana
peppers in a sesame seed bun.
earlier donuts,
as J Christopher’s served
plenteous tables, needing
to be bussed — no sense
fussing over customers,
waiting on me and him.
you would have given us
the day having not enough
hands to deliver the stuff.
life is rough, post-pandemic.
we will stir our coffee again
in your establishment, reputable,
but for now our brunch grab
is a half-dozen, craved, cream-
filled, and fried, chocolate covered
and glazed. my eyes. i scramble us
up some cheesy-eggs so we don’t 
just fall asleep as the world calls
to memory our dead - quite likely
the reason we live. books leak
into my eyes, lips, ears — gears
turning with a one day panacea
of someone else’s lives. the other
hand free to stress over the internet
that doesn’t allow for catch up
of files. day spent riled, filled,
and not alone nor in stacks. stack
that all up to life on earth. angels
watch my ups and downs.
that is my teeth crunching, gritting,
sounding out words from Coopers’
Muskrat Castle on Glimmerglass,
and a couple chapters of Sawyer’s
Sinking Sand, with a hopeful side
of Cowman’s May 31st reading.
flipping pages, not pancakes,
nor my wig — ruminating about
many things: my mother…

Burger King

BURGER KING
 
In a kingdom where hunger is king,
Burger royalty is humongously a thing.
Crowned in buns of sesame seed,
Each bite satisfies our carnivorous need.
With cheezy indulgence & toppings aplenty,
Here's a palace where taste reigns gently.6

Sat upon the throne, his presence unperturbed,
The Burger King, with food powers so absurd.
Wearing a royal robe draped on his shoulders, 
Crowns all around him, he makes his orders,
He's black and proud, regal and bold,
A crown atop his head, shining in purest gold.¹²

A majestic burger upon his lap, stealing our sights,
A feast fit for a king, piled high with delight,
Overflowing with toppings, a tantalizing sight.
His subjects & rivals marveled, unable to compete,
For this was a burger, so legendary and sweet.
Burger stacked nicely, in mountains high,
Scattered underneath the fast food sky,¹?

With McDonald’s on the left, filled with chips solely.
Sesame bun so soft, as if it whispered a story,
Lettuce so green, adding a touch of glory,
Tomatoes bursting with goodness, fresh & ripe,
The aroma of sizzling patties, an enticing type,
The burger is a temptation hard to swipe.²5

At Burger King, every burger lover are kings,
As we enjoy whoppers towering, & chicken wings.
But if you ever stumble upon a black king's reign,
You might just witness a burger, driving him insane.
Burger King sits atop till the going down of the sun.
So let us embrace laughter & share in the fun,³¹

For life's too short for burgers to weigh us down,
And not too heavy to burden or make us frown.
Let us remember, in this humorous tale,
That even king enjoy food that makes them exhale.
Whether sitting on a throne or in a fast-food joint,
A love for deliciousness knows no bounds or point.³7

Her need and. desire to copulate
Made loving her less a chore
The wines and bread to began
The evenings scored in song
Might this night start our togetherness
A perfection of you and I
Nothing to sort through
Alone just you and I

AS he worked up his nerves to marry him as she
Was pregnant.
