little bites of air
covered with a sugar glaze
oh those krispy kremes

Strategically placed by the checkout at The WalMart, a half dozen box of Krispy Kreme doughnuts fell into my cart and wound up at home this past weekend.
Like time passing.
Like sands in the hour glass.
Like the rise and fall of the tide.
Here today and gone tomorrow.
Just a memory, where they really year.
One bite and an explosion of sweet in your mouth.
Second bite and maybe the sense of flecks of glaze on your tongue and the hint of something fluffy beyond the sweet.
Third bite and 4th bite and its gone.
Was it ever there?
If it was for the glaze on my fingertips I would have doubts.
Just little bites of air, covered in a sugar glaze.
Oh those Krispy Kremes.
Total pleasure and I can rationalize any guilt.
