Carbs my weakness LOL

Image (c) 2007, Karla Dorman


Poem Artwork

smell yeast in the air
a swollen scent of
carbohydrates that
lingers in the nose
increases poundage

look up at the clouds
twisting overhead
they look like pretzels
mustard yellow skies
make me think of food

no wonder i'm fat

(c) 2008, Karla Dorman (7/17)

lol, I love honey mustard and french fries, it is an addictive combination and yes, adds to the pounds.

Great idea to write about. The last two lines take the imagery off-course, though. (although I do understand the sentiment)... So, let me tell you what I like about the first part of the poem:

imagery is great...wording, unique...and senses are awakened...is that hotdogs I'm smelling?
