Junk Food

Healthy or sweet,
There is always junk food to eat,
Get into the take out line and say
Can I have the burger and fries?
I wait out to the side and
Can’t wait for my yummy surprise,
My number shouted out as the sweet
Smell of junk food climbs up my nose,
My taste buds humming as I take a
Big bight full of delight,
And sigh in relief as I sit back to enjoy the rest of
My good snack,
The meaty goodness
Fills me up as I finish the last pieces my
stomach growls in fear as the junk food hits back
and says you should have not ate THAT!
