"Ode to Savory Tarts"
by Jeph Johnson
Savory tarts are what I crave
Wholesomely accepted without shame
Nonetheless they feed me sweets
The only food I shouldn't eat
That go straight to my pancreas
Releasing an instantaneous
Fatigue that makes my body weaken
Breaking down what I've been eating
Devouring more savory tarts
Will not improve diabetic charts
Nor make one's A1C behave
Inching closer to the grave
But oh they taste so damned delicious
Despite their lackluster nutrition
No Sugar Rush
Just a sugar rise. I fell into some gummy bears last week and enjoyed them guiltily, but oooooooh! I'm better now. I have memories. :D
