the deal

i should make a golden sweet
and print poems inside the wrapper
i could sell it and millions would come
and i would search the crowd for you

then we will buy an island
without predators or tsunamis
only tiny sharks and jellyfish

i call it 'rhymes with lozenge'

Yet another contest entry at allpoetry dot com. The prompt here was: "I choke on words & they taste bitter". I wrecked the curve a little bit. I did enjoy the pun at the end, though.
