Short Junk Food Poems

Buckwheat and quinoa 
Ghee for me. 

Off to the store
To buy some more!...

Don't know who designed the Golden Arches
With way too many sugars and starches:
  Some say the fare's quite good,
  Others think it's junk food--
Yet no protest or funeral marches!...

Well how about this, it's been more than a week
Haven't gorged on goodies or junk food to speak
What a good soul I am
I'm my number one fan
I'll be a skiny-ma-link before next week...

Will miss my souper friends
But need some beach time
Need some sun and fun

Seafood and junk food
Vacation is on the way
Will return on 5/29/10

I can smell the salt spray
Just got to get away!!...

Well how about this, it's been more than a week
Haven't gorged on goodies or junk food, to speak
What a good soul I am
I'm my number one fan
Soon I'll be a skinny-ma-link which I doth seek...

A burger with fries are fit for a king
But it's not gonna lose weight you big ding a-ling
For a slimmer bod
Give a negative nod
To junk food and wind up a 98 pound weakling

(Cinquain Syllable Count) 


Cookies cakes
ice creams and pies 
They taste so delicious 
chocolates hard to resist 
Not good!

The weeds in his yard were sky high
"Just PULL them!" nagged his wife, said he'd try
But the thought brought him sorrow
Said, "I'll do it tomorrow!"
As he sat, eating junk food and fries.

As I hunger..
I fill myself up with
Food from past failures.

It's over-indulging.
It's only temporary,
But it is filling.

I could reminisce on thing that are good,
Like love and life.
But then I would not have the satisfaction 
Of my junk food....

Preposterous, I am not a junk-food addict!
The recipe was good;
The presentation was great;
The final dish, however, was disappointing.
It could have used a teaspoon full of warmth
And maybe a dash of humor.
A crowd pleaser, at first, to be sure,
But not worth the effort....

It is easy to fill your stomach 
with junk food
however, in life
you should  do something good;
Be smart
and fill your mind with knowledge of art
as well as learning a lot about science
so you may have the chance 
to establish a bridge
to form an alliance
between art and science...

FEEDING THE DUCKS


children love to feed 
ducklings in the park
the most rowdy child
will sit quietly
watching the ducklings

do not feed bread
carbohydrates
junk food, … causing
malnutrition

feed birdseed
frozen peas
oats, grains,… for

healthy
happy

ducks...

Michael Latido has quite a history.
He is considered a medical mystery.
The razor blades, nuts and bolts.
Eaten by him and other dolts.
Are nothing, compared to namely,
His eating a grocer cart, bicycle 
and claim to fame, doing away inanely...
With a complete Cessna airplane

I get this cocky feeling when I hear
that another cardiologist died this year.
And my laughter becomes hilarious
when the cause is arteriosclerosis –
brought on by plaque-clogged arteries,
overweight and junk food calories.
(Serves them right for not practicing
what to others they’re always preaching.)...

(Isa was an ESL student of mine from a small island country off Africa. The students were learning about limericks, and I wrote this one for Isa, because she really did love junk food!)

A lover of junk food, sweet Isa
was happy when she got her Visa.
For with it in hand,
she left for the land
of burgers and french fries and pizza!

Health Food

natural, low-calorie

nourishing, strengthening, boring

kale, *kimchi, chips, chocolate

tantalizing, satisfying, fattening

salty, sweet

Junk Food


*Kimchi is the national health food of Korea, fermented vegetables, particularly cabbage. It's nasty-tasting stuff, but to each his own.

Junk food
                          Sweet and salty
                         No nutrition at all
           Please just give me an M and M sandwich
           Topped with potato chips to give it crunch
               Fill my cupboards with Mounds bars,
                     Bring on the unhealthy
                      Hot chips, oh, yes!
                               Junk food...

POT TOP PALINDROMES 

STOP POTS and SNAP PANS
DRAWN ONWARD craving DOOM MOOD junk food
NO MELON NO LEMON creating LEVEL SOLOS
Imagining only DESSERTS… STRESSED
REWARDER temptation avoided….please REDRAWER
WE FEW are disgusted by WET STEW
Never suggest or mention TUNA ROLL OR A NUT
SOME EMOS
DAMMIT IM MAD

Forwards or backwards-- it's all the same

At McRonald's, you get what you order,
McVirgin burgers from someone's daughter,
Sluts just wanna have fun,
In a sesame seed bun!
Do you want any French fries?
Have some fertilisers and pesticides!
We're not selling these apple pies,
Because we really love you, guys, 
Here, more landfill and sulphate dioxides,
Have a nice day today,
Anyone for take away?
All in a plastic sesame bun,
Yum! Yum! Yum! Yum!...

Gaining weight has always been easy for me.
I’m having a Zoom lesson today at a quarter ‘til three.
First you’ll have to go on a grocery shopping spree.
Buy gobs of salty sweet things, all the junk food you see.

Here’s a test if in this class you want to join and be.
Can you see your tummy? Still see one knee?
Here is what I’ll accept as part of my teaching fee.
A bucket of sugar nuts from a Macadamia nut tree....

Consuming your words
trim the fat from my waistline
like anorexics

The empty calories
in your words turned my face to shame
like bulimics

Your words like junk food
made  me unhealthy
as the years pass by

My thin darkened skin
wrinkled having no luster
awaits death

Empty calories in your words
took a toll on my soul
crushed my spirit

Now  one foot in the grave
one standing firm in life
I continue to strive...

Missing my childhood
playing games in the streets with friends
sip water from hose 

Sneaking to the store
Buy junk food before dinner
get in big trouble

Walking far with friends
ride the bike far to the beach
beat the street lights home

Rushing home from school
erase the teacher message
before mom get home

My first childhood crush
was a player broke my heart 
gave me my first kiss

Glanced in the mirror 
Didn't like what I saw
All of that junk food I bought
Packing on the pounds
Now I just look round
Gotta start eating right
Gotta start running every night
I'm so out of shape
Gotta do what it takes
Double chin on my face
Can anyone relate
Ice cream and cookies
Rolls and muffin top
I'll never get any nookie
I did this to myself
I now realize I need help
Gotta get up off my ass
And join a weight loss class...

We three kids, Just stayin up late
Were warm and full from all the junk food we ate
In Snuggies we lay, fighting off our sleep
Thinkin of the mornin our gifts in a heap
Nodding off, Nodding off, Nodding off, Nodding off
hopin winter wont make us sneeze and cough

To be healthy I'm told I must exercise a lot
Eat no junk food or your going to go to pot

Wear a helmet when your bike you ride
And latch seatbelts in case you should collide

Be sure to get an adequate amount of sleep
And always be sure to look before you leap

I'm told beware of ingesting to much table salt
If you get hypertension it will be your own fault

Its hard to remember all the things that one should do
Oh, oh, now I'm reminded my insurance I must  renew...
