Deal Meal


Make it a meal

Seems like a deal

More for less reel

Has squeak appeal

Let's just reveal

What's under the seal

Like banana peel

Spent how you'll feel

 

The extra you got

Is just plain rot

Sugar/starch lot

Was tossed in a pot

Pushed through a slot

Tied in a knot

Sold with a plot

Gourmet it's not

 

What's served is all air

 

Puffed magic prepare

Exaggerate's care

Extremed ordinaire

Sold as good food ware

So bad for health fare

So just you beware

Best before

Dare

 

Damn

Some poems have a form

More X is a storm

While Y to conform

Like fast food perform

I'll end with a worm
