Reasons I am Fat #1

early April
before the onslaught
of chocolate eggs
and insincerity
there appears a bready product
I cannot resist.
Hot Cross Buns
eaten cold with salted butter
brings the gluttony of shemomedjamo
where I can't leave one in the packet.
And then the regret
of eating all four.

*Shemomedjamo (Georgian): a meal that’s so good you can’t stop eating it; literally, “I accidentally ate the whole thing”
