Candy Shop - Day 6

 Good N Plenty

This is your last chance. You take

the pink pill and you wake up

disappointed tomorrow. Same deal

with the white. No binary waterfall,

no choice. Inside we are all acquired

tastes, which is to say: soft and awful.

If you believe once upon a time

there was an Engineer, tell yourself

you are by design. Earn what made Him

rate you very good, one adverb better

than the elms and pheasants and oceans

He made first and didn't bother to name.

Pick up a box and shake--it rattles (they say)

like what's left when the furnace is done

with a body.
