Cookies

I always say . . .
I will take these cookies 
And they will 
Last all week 

I will measure them out 
So many each day 
And have great willpower 
About it

I hesitate to mention 
how many times 
I have had this same plan . . .

I hesitate to admit 
That now, on the first day 
Of contemplation 
There are only 
     A few left 

And those will do 
For 
After dinner 

However I do not despair 
About this 
For in my great wisdom 
I know -
     That
I have 
     Lots more things 
Of so much greater importance 
     To despair 
Much more deeply 
     About
