i can resist everything but temptation

it's not going
to be
a good food day when you wake up
thinking about
French Toast.
syrup, butter, the whole deal.
sausage on the side.
this image and longing
is going to be
hard to shake.
should you give in now,
or white knuckle
it through
the day,
until at last, near midnight
you go down to
the kitchen
and heat up
the big frying pan.
as Oscar Wilde once said,
i can resist
everything,
but temptation, especially
when it comes
to French Toast.
