Disappointment (small stone 22)

snack attack
crunchy salty cravings
crowd out the sensibility of healthy consumption
i search the cupboards
for morsels bound to please
not to be found
disappointment reigns


I am participating in The River Of Stones.
by writing a small stone every day for the month of January.
A *small stone is a very short piece of writing that precisely captures a fully-engaged moment

Wouldn't you know that I opened this up just after I said I needed to find a snack. And I, not having been to the store in a while, am hard put to find what to eat. In my case though, I only have "healthy" stuff left when what I was really craving was a candy bar.

Disappointment of stuff we don't need makes one think what we do need. Golly, you inspired me ;-)
Now I'll go have some raisins!
