A potato
[ASR] A rambling invoked by Donna's wry cracks about my eating habits.

♠♠♠♠♠

A potato?

♠♠♠♠♠

Ate salad with chicken.
Wow.
Bad habit ...
eating decent food.
A potato will do ...
with butter,
cheese,
or not.
I like rice alot!
And a sandwich would be great
if I can find some peanut butter.
If not?
Toast will do.
Water must be boiled here.
Coffee's fine,
when I can afford it.
Milk?
Almost never.
When Donna asks if I've ate today,
I smile "yes".
But,
she knows me well.
Her wit cracks back:
"A potato?"
and lets it rest.
We both know
that eating healthy
would be better,
but a salad with chicken
would be best.
