We,

went shopping with a simple list;

all of what one would have wanted

...a la carte...

triple checked,

for what might be missed:

flowers, eggs, sugar, butter, salted triste...

all the right ingredients disagreeably

holding out for a ready-mix.

Does friendship beyond the carton

some-where out-there really exist..?

...the perfect baked alaska...

that every lonely heart is as if

craving after:

all our purchase power

poured into a fancy stand mixer,

sounds so sinister;

but it turns out well several dozen

golden ginger breaded some ones

ringing the pavlov bell with heavenly

fi fie foe scent;

but I think we've set a fine table

of content,

for cutting new wisdom teeth

into a shared experience,

paired humbly with own mugs

of understanding.
