Snacks
Potato chips,
Crisp and salty,
A few are burnt,
Therefore faulty...

Pretzels twisted
Around your neck,
But crispy and fresh,
Oh what the heck...

M & Ms upside down
Are W & W's,
I have to frown...

All I want, a piece of cheese,
All I've got, the sneeze of Louise
Wouldn't  mind an ice cold beer,
Sip...

Movie Snacks
When I was a kid at the movies
With money to purchase a snack,
I wouldn’t buy popcorn or bonbons
Or Bonomo’s taffy to crack.

My favorites were strange, I admit it
And ones that I’d never now buy.
The first, root beer barrels, were tasty
And gave me a soda-like high.

The...

I tried to eat a baseball cap
A dreidel and some lumber
Some beetles and a monkey trap
And now this swell cucumber....

The Worst of Midnight Snacks
In the middle of the night
With sleep still in my eyes 
I stepped into my kitchen 
And received quite a surprise 

As I reached out my hand
And flicked the light on
There were balloons, confetti, party hats
With a banner that read -WELCOME HOME-

I'd caught thousands of...

Poetry Snacks
Orange peels litter my desk,
sprinkling sparkling droplets of orange oil
over my unfinished love sonnet

A croissant is over there,
I just remembered.
It soaks my slam poem,
which I shall never perform,
with buttery heaviness

Jelly beans, blue, red, green, white,
to be found on the remote island of
my travel diary, as...

Bar Snacks
Bar Snacks

A man walks into a pub
And asks if they sell bar snacks.
The barman says that they do,
"We've got roast goblin,
Grilled leprechaun
And deep fried fairy"
The man thought for a moment
"They all sound very tasty
But don't you serve anything elfy?"...

Blood For Breakfast, Nails For Lunch, Souls For Dinner, Hell For Snacks
Insane is the brain 
Cerebral in infinity
Without endless thoughts
Counting backwards 
To cascade forward
What is reality of the mind
And what is pure illusion of the heart
I make believe that what I say exists
But a figment is fruit from the Gods
Given to mortals as trickery
Promethius was tricked...

Midnight snacks
The beauty of the evening,
The blushing horizon in the west
I adore much the taste
Of sugary sweets blended
In the black coffee
In the mug of beautiful evening
Moistens my thirsty throat,
To alleviate an exhaustion 
After my daily affairs.

The glow of appealing eve
Freezes to the stark darkness.
Thin cover of...

Premium Member Welch's Fruit Snacks
Ok, I think I'm addicted to Welch's fruit snacks
They come in little packets and I keep going back!
The box is empty....way too fast
I may have to get help for this at last!
Or maybe I could be on a commercial one day somehow
Make some money telling...

Corn Snacks

I’ve been made conscious of 
the fact that 
corn snacks thought up the
first computer programming language used for 
math and 
scientific aim.

I Want, But Don't Need

Yes, "I Want, But Don't Need" is my waistwatcher creed 
     as I walk by each vending machine.
All those chocolate chips calling out to my hips,
     colored Reese's in pieces - obscene!
Will willpower...

Premium Member A Case For the Pretzel
Today is National Pretzel Day…the day to give our hats a tip
to the long-suffering cousin of the more popular potato chip.

I’m not sure how it happened…why or where or when
but in a list of the most popular snacks...pretzels aren’t in the top 10?

How can they...

Premium Member Sleepwalkers
She did not recall those nightly forages
 Those midnight snacks had packed on the pounds
 From her eating habits she couldn't disengage
She needs to solve the mystery of those midnight rounds

 Her husband was suspicious too
 And he wondered what he should do
 For someone...

Our Seagulls
Seagulls fly white high
Looking with their eye
For your popcorn and
French fries on the tile.

Soaring through blue the
White seagulls paste against
The sky as white kites soaring
With a seagull call for snacks.

When you see the seagull
Landing quietly a white and gray
Sneaky seagull snatches
Potato chips with glee.

Whisking over...

Start Reading Some Book
Let Hans start reading some book:
Let him not this overlook
Or it shall him later hook
In a school they don't scores cook,
Her exit door for the crook
And who thinks he can rook...

Let him now try his textbook,
Who never his meals forsook
And sweet snacks made sure he...
