THOSE "OLD SINFUL" STICKY BUNS

...some people...are so flawless...as to seem....
...almost perfect...
********************

Now I know a fine lady...

    could even  be my wife

I suppose...

    Who has gumption, perception,

         and good judgment

in just about all things in life,

     and (as Rush says:)

"Ninety-eight point seven percent 

             of the time..."

But...

Isn't it true that...nobody is "perfect?"

Now she once had this position

      that involved a vicissitude---

            a bad and dreaded

requirement of her job description...

       was---

She had to "keep open" her office

     one Saturday morning 

         a month, to help people

who dropped by

Badly needing early coffee, sustenance,        

           and

     maybe a morale boost on Saturdays

she remembered The Daily Grind

     and went by there

and found not only good Java

But 

"the greatest STICKY BUNS to be

                      found

 In All Creation..."

   

Soon she found herself 

            anticipating

  those wonderful once-dreaded

Saturday mornings...with

        their marvelous sticky buns...

Then she retired.

However, today

       some years later, she has found

a Grand New Source

          for these dietary-sinful

                  stickies"

and she has back-slid...

They now cost three-fifty each

      and I mustn't tell 

the source...where to get

      them

 But, just to let you know:

      Now, I too am "hooked..."

My gumption is gone,

        and my will power.
