Ode to Smears, Shakes, Slurs and Malice

Last week, a dropped strawberry shake splattered on the pavement

Leaving a permanent smear that can’t be hose-nozzled away;

Must ask, what is it? 16 grams of saturated fats, 100 grams of sugar, mono and diglycerides,

Cellulose and guar gums and carrageenan surpassing the daily carb limits.
