keto pancakes

on a diet

she made the beach house

keto

pancakes.

she got up

early in the morning

and got to work.

a large stack

sat in the middle of

the table when we arose,

but they

were inedible.

thankfully there were

eggs too,

and bacon.

as we cleaned up,

i took the uneaten pancakes

to the porch

and tossed

them high into the air

like frisbees

for the seagulls.

after snatching them,

they flew

for a while, wings flapping

towards

the ocean,

where each pancake,

uneaten, fell.
