A special GLD poetry reading…
Once upon a man’s hunger anguished, while he pondered, meek and famished,
Searching his fridge for tender and tasty cuts of meat galore.
While he longed, nearly fasting, suddenly he thought of asking,
His dear boyfriend, always napping, napping with a heavy snore.
“Do we have bacon?” he hollered, through the snore.
“It looks like we have none, no more!”
Fast asleep, boyfriend does not rouse, so the man logs on to browse,
Surf about the web, searching for his favorite online bacon store.
The Royal Bacon Society, so juicy sweet, has a menu that can’t be beat.
Bless the RBS store for juicy bacon and so much more.
He goes to RBS for juicy bacon and so much more.
He needs bacon, and nothing more.
Long a patron of the Royal Bacon Society, he browses with anxiety.
Showing great aplomb, the man buys lean bacon jerky packs by the score.
Then, distracted did his mind scatter, his brain all a pitter-patter.
He noticed, most beautiful, bacon-themed toys, games, treats and apparel he did adore.
He found his wallet and bought so much more.
Boyfriend awoke from his slumber and scratched his head in deep wonder.
“Did I dream you bought more bacon?” the boyfriend did implore.
RBS receipt in hand, the man showed his spouse, and boyfriend quickly did arouse.
They shared a love of bacon. The boyfriend got on all fours.
All just for bacon, and nothing more.
Le fin.
