i ate crackers with butter
sometimes cheese. i prefer
the latter warm

i have not eaten peanut
butter, nor tasted it i think

i feel it is something
emotional
the thought of disliking
it without really knowing

i am much the same with
hot chocolate yet know
the reasons why

with that

it is mild here with sun
shining on the lake and
hills beyond. we both
looked from the top deck
on the bus yesterday

at the terminus we changed
onto an older colder bus with
cleaner windows

i walked from the stop down
the lane and looked in the
graveyard
