Donut Store Blend
Gone the way
of the phone booth
and station wagon,
the morning tradition
is dunked, or otherwise
reduced to an essence
added to the grind,
a kind of tribute.
Time-travel across
the politically correct,
wrap one in wax paper,
dribble jelly for old times' sake,
the icing so sweet
it makes your teeth hurt.
