I Am the Nutman

 

Little me

used to request constantly

to chef Mommy

not to include nuts

in with the brownie mix


My plea was always nixed

cause she controlled

the applied ingredients

that comprised the final product

she would create


An early valuable life lesson

served up on a plate


You can't always get what you want


You gotta learn to adapt

and make the best

of less than optimal situations


By the way

today I am

a steadfast nut man


A compromised product

of my childhood environment
