as promised, another poem



Go to Bed with a Cheese and Pickle Sandwich

Go to bed with a chees and pickle sandwich
--it is life enhancing.
It doesn't chat you up
--you have to make it.

A cheese and pickle sandwich
is never disappointing.
You don't lie there thinking:
Am I too fat?
Too insecure?
Too fertile?

Your thoughts are clear
--your choices simple:
to cut it in half,
or not to cut it in half.
How thin to slice the cheese,
and where you should place the pickle.

From a cheese and pickle sandwich
you don not expect flowers,
poem, words of love and acts of adoration.
You expect what you get
--cheese...and pickle.

YOu want, you eat,
and afterwards --you have eaten.
No lying awake resentful
listening to it snore.

Safe snacks.
It comes
recommended.
