A poem

Since Karri wrote a poem yesterday, I figured I had to write one myself. It's a competitive writing thing.

It's called "Afternoon Drink."

I love you Diet Vanilla Pepsi, oh yes I do,
I don't love any carbonated sugar-free phenylalaninated artificially colored and flavored bottled mass-market consumer beverage as much as you.
If I were drowned or strangled or suffocated or otherwise deprived of oxygen such that my lungs filled up with toxic carbon dioxide, I would turn blue.
Oh, Diet Vanilla Pepsi, I love you.

The end.
