On Temptation
A stray pieces of chocolate
a hersey's kisses
staring at me
in the writing lab
a shiny alien in tin foil
"oh if only I had a heart"
I would eat you
unfortunately ,the brain part of me
says you are suspiciously foreign
Are things always suspiciously promising
baiting you with
harmless sweetness
only to choke you
or cause a tooth decay
which would last years and years?
I don't know
should I leave it alone
or eat it with an open heart and an absent mind?
There
Just eat it. Just eat it.
