act surprised

sure, i will take a bite of you, thanks,
a nibble with my morning toast.
only eat whole grain
but i don't mind real butter.
sometimes the grains
the ones that make you better for me
get all mixed up in your speech and take
bites out of me.
 i can taste the high fructose bullshit,
see it hear it beating through your chest
before you've even had a sip.

good thing i can read minds;
makes the snow-made-daylight nights
significantly more entertaining.
but i've said it before, i'd rather
have you read it to me.
