Make a batch of fudge brownies
and in one sitting chomp through
half the pan because this morning
you happened to push a shopping
cart through several grocery aisles
then scootched a handful of bills
into the mouth of a corner mailbox
and for godssakes even pumped
gasoline into the rear haunch of
your Toyota so face it this might
be your last chance for chocolate
