Cheese? Again? <br />Please, don’t tease! <br />Even the bread shies, <br />The butter sighs, <br />The knife takes pity, <br />The lunchbox cries! <br /> <br />Cheddar? I guessed right! <br />I’ll retaliate – I’ll start a fight! <br />At least try spam <br />Or breaded ham. <br />Maybe meat paste - <br />Strawberry jam? <br /> <br />But bloody cheese, <br />It’s blight – a disease! <br />I don’t want calcium <br />Nor all that fat; <br />I’d rather eat snails - <br />Or fricasseed rat! <br /> <br />Another day and I’ve a hunch - <br />Well whaddya know! <br />It’s cheese for lunch. <br />Oh, I throw in the towel; I just give in. <br />Let's cheer for cheese <br />And down a gin.<br /><br />Mark R Slaughter<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/cheese-sandwiches/
