I love candy corn,
once a year, at Halloween,
delicious colorful witches fangs;
it can go stale, you know.
I once kept it
in a square squat
glass jar
on my shelf,
for color.
Years later I took a bite;
a rock that could break your teeth!
I love People magazine
once a year at the dentist.
Dramas of peoples' lives,
with glossy photographs.
The stories always pull me in
away from my own pain,
while in the other room
my dentist is mending teeth.

mort sahl once said - and i love it - "people magazine is the only magazine that you can read at a geen light."
