Donuts for Dinner

Jelly beans and licorice, chocolate cake and tarts.
How these sweat and gooey things bring nibbles to my heart.
I know I shouldn’t eat them but lack the strength I need.
To push them far away from me so not tempted to feed.
Ice cream, donuts, chocolate bars my eyes are saucers now.
If I keep on eating, I’ll look just like that cow.
They taste so yum, I can’t believe they are not somehow good.
If out of sight I can resist and eat the things I should.
Potato chips and pretzels, popcorn and apple pie.
I’m really getting hungry now as time is passing by.
I’d settle for most anything to fill this appetite.
Yet everyone is telling me “You really should eat right.”
I’ve never had a spinach pie or a cake made out of peas.
I guess I could try beat juice and celery with cheese.
Watermelon, pineapple or kiwi fruit I guess.
Although to eat these things to me creates an awful mess.
I could grow a little garden and plant the healthy stuff.
The green and leafy things I’d find don’t seem like quite enough.
It doesn’t have much sugar and isn’t very sweat.
It’s really not the kind of food that I would choose to eat.
Suffice to say I like the way the junk appeals to me.
I guess I’ll have to change my ways to try and stay healthy.
I’ll do my very utmost to eat a better diet.
If you haven’t tried my junk food, I recommend you try it.
