Food for Thought: Provocative Poems and Evocative Essays
by John L. Smith"Brunch Neither an early breakfast, nor a fashionable late lunch, But rather eaten on the ill-conceived, hopeful hunch, That eating the one single meal, will make you thinner, If to-night you skip your formal, sit-down Sunday dinner. But 1 predict that this will be far from true; For I been watching closely everyone of you. Scoffing bacon, egg, sausage, chicken and danish down. Enough to make the Duchess of York, groan and frown. The problem is, that in having paid table d'hote, A sense of gastronomic proportion is now totally remote, As you eat heartily to get your money's worth. You'll bloat your tummy and backside girth Try to lose the ugly weight you've gained, if you are able, By splitting your sides with laughter while sitting at the table. By applauding each act with an energetic, standing ovation, Much easier than a fortnight of painful, near-starvation True this poem is but one extended pun. And may even make you want to scream, cut and run; But nowadays where can you read, hear and imagine so much fun. So squeaky clean, and not the usual, very crude and very dumb."
