   Dessert

Have your control.
Take it; my will, take all from me.
Scrape my insides, eat me out
Like a bowl of cookie dough.
I'm sure to you it tastes as sweet
As any Toll House batch.
And I will resist
No more than a squeaky piece
Of Tupperware.

Then when I am empty
And you are full
Perhaps you will leave me alone,
For why would you want a used bowl
With nothing left to offer?
And I will be at peace
Stacked in a low cupboard
Among other treated plastic products
Sold under the guarantee
"Unbreakable."
