one cherry cough drop will do

there has to be
at least one sweet treat
in the house,
one cookie,
one tiny bit of chocolate,
or candy
from last years Halloween.
there has to be
a crumb
of a donut, a thin
slice
of cake
between the sofa seats.
a morsel of something
frozen
in the freezer,
ice cream
maybe. please
don't make me eat
an apple,
please.
