Diana Darby ** "I V" ** Intravenous

A Real Fake

Tonight I had a grilled cheese sandwich
for dinner.
Well, it wasn’t real cheese,
it was soy cheese,
but it tasted so good
I didn’t have to convince myself
that it wasn’t the real thing.
It was melty and crunchy and brown
and it felt just like real cheese
going down.
For dessert
I bought a Hershey’s Chocolate bar with Almonds.
I didn’t like it.
It must have been too real.
