Ode to Junk Food
Ode to Junk Food
Our life-giving fountain,
Our ruler supreme,
Our fat-dripping, chocolate-sprinkled
Angels in quarantine.
They fit every fancy,
Every whim, every mood.
Yes, let’s give three cheers
For Junk Food!
The dribbling cheese of a margarita pizza,
A hot buttered chocolate croissant.
The weak quickly give in and fall senseless.
The strong think they can hold out but can't.
A lemon almond meringue is an anytime lifesaver.
Sizzling hot dogs with mustard- delish.
Can’t you just taste the unhealthy goodness
Of such a delicious dish?
Oh, lose yourself in a chocolate brownie.
Eat cakes and chips galore
Bring some goodies into your life
And you will love it more.
Now, if you’ll excuse me.
I need to replenish my hoard
And if you want me you can find me
In the candy store!
