Unregrettable,Yet So Guilty

Inspired by the poem, “This is Just to Say”, by William Carlos Williams

I have slurped down

The last of the “Cotton Candy Frap” from Starbucks

That was relaxing

So lonely

On the kitchen counter

Just waiting for someone

To guzzle it down

And enjoy the sensational taste

Traveling to the stomach

And which

You were obviously

Expecting

For after your hard-working, tiring,

Lengthy day at basketball practice

Forgive me

For it was irresistible

So mouth-watering

And so delightful

I guarantee

You wouldn’t

Have savored

The tempting treat

As much as I did
