Party

For four hours we 

Rolled dumplings,

Powdered calamari,

Rolled sushi.

We don’t eat wheat,

But this was a birthday meal

For a friend,

So we served ourselves with a will.

I ate ten dumplings,

Some number of sushi rolls,

Two helpings of calamari.

I had forgotten there was

Key lime pie with Cool Whip and

Lemon cheesecake with chocolate crust

For dessert. 

My stomach hurts, 

But I’m not sure that’s because 

Of the wheat.
