I have to constantly outguess, outrun and outfox
Because I am their mother said my crunchy cereal box
This mystified me; I was blank, wordless at best
I read her advertisements again, thinking this was a test.

Cereal In The PM
My mouth coated with Coco bombs
Washed with vanilla cream
Taste buds scream, as if they are exploding
Flavor that melts on my tongue
And I haven't even added the sepia syrup
It turns my favorite cereal into delectable bonbon like bombs
No spoon is big enough for the mouthfuls I bite into
Thick servings TikTok dancing on my

Cereal Musings
Cheerios lacks sugar
Alphabet cereal needs marshmallows
A wise one invents Lucky Charms
I eat all the colorful marshmallows out of it too
Wheaties and Raisin Bran are awful.
Daddy eats them
I have no idea how
Is there a sugar swamp in the bottom of his bowl?
In the winter we have Cream of Wheat
Malt-o-Meal
Coco Puffs
Nothing is special about Special K

A Cereal Killer
Kellogg, he was groomed as a killer.
The milk on the spoon - would not spill ‘er.
With cheerios breath,
a masticate-death,
he zeroed his victims - a thriller.

A Cereal Killer
Maybe a serial killer, the crows cawed to each other.
This was agreed upon by the vole and the vole’s mother.
I think he’s just a great horned owl, a good guy, I said.
However, I did not know all the murderous books that he read.
He studied forensics, and he took apart his own pellets.
The books he read

Tomboy
Sworn to secrecy, she told me it had been a long time..
as we sat swinging in a hammock in the late day sun.
'What., are you sayin' you never did it?'
I thought what my mom would do if she caught me, and replied
'brought up different I guess'.
She leaned back into the netting, perhaps chewing on what

She Is a Cereal Killer
She’s a cereal killer
She chomps the Wheaties into bits
She’s a cereal killer
But please let’s not have any fits.
She masticates harder than most
She’s a killer of breads
Does serious damage to cinnamon toast
She’s the one of whom nightmares dread.
She’s a cereal killer
All the way up and down the kitchen
Now that you’ve been warned,
Please stop your annoying b………………….

Makes me squirm in my undies
Wanna climb trees
But it makes me wheeze
Guess I'll just get back to my guppies

Is It the Cereal
Donald Trump uses language so rough
He portrays himself as being tough
But people just say
He oft acts that way
Because he's kokoo for cocoa puffs

In the Golden Sunrise Children Eat Cereal For Breakfast
~the golden sunrise
an empty sunrise pouring
at the old cornflakes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
impish break of day
a raw, content milk floating
on the cloudy skies
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
lack luster breakfast
a content children hungry
out of cereal`~
