brownies


by walter w johnson iii



my mom baked brownies every wednesday night
she seemed to enjoy doing it
and she was a nice person
and thought we liked the brownies

but all was not smooth sailing
i apologize for using the term smooth sailing
but i can not help it
it is just my way

dad ate the brownies
but expressed a preference for peanut butter cookies
and was slightly annoyed
that mom did not indulge him in this

my sister rose ate the brownies too
but with expressed misgivings
as it interfered with the weight loss program
to which she dedicated her life more or less

i apologize for using the term
more or less
but i can not help it
it is just my way

i ate the brownies myself
they were not all that great
but they were all right i guess
and i am easy to get along with
