Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.


What could be more beautiful than a beautiful, beautiful love poem? Just in time to be two days late for Valentine's Day, here's my beautiful, beautiful love poem, all about the beautiful, beautiful love of my life. (Get out the Kleenex - this one's a two-boxer!)

The wrinkled bag looks so divine
I trace my finger over each line.
When I take a look, it's empty inside.
My Fritos are gone.

The label says 13 grams of fat.
But who are they? I don't care about that.
What matters is that before we were through
We had a love, a love so true.

Oh why, oh why wasn't there more?
I loved you so, but that was before.
Before you left me in defeat
It seemed there were so many of you to eat.
My Fritos are gone.

200 calories, 120 from fat.
The cherished memories keep coming back.
Your salty taste lingers on my lips
Like the flashback of an acid trip.
My Fritos are gone.

Eating you was such ecstasy
Before you left me; left me to be.
Now that you're gone, I know just what I'll do -
Fruitlessly keep on loving you.
My Fritos are gone.

Please, people, try to contain yourselves. Call the Harlequin people - I think we've got a romance novel in the making over here!
