Chocolate or vanilla?
It’s yours to choose,
“Because I like it”
“Because it tastes good”
“Because I wanted it”
Because, because, because…
Maybe you chose for the joy of choosing.
Or because you are privileged.
Chocolate or vanilla?
It’s yours to lose,
“Because I hate it”
“Because it’s just food”
“Because I disliked it”
Because, because, because…
Maybe you chose for the hate of choosing.
Or because you were born into it.

Written off the back of my head for some school event…I think it was literacy related. I remember submittin it anonymously…no idea if it even got featured…but I do know that at least one teacher thought it was good.
