Some things are for real and others only appear real until you dig a little deeper
White bread, all soft and gooie
so good to eat
I tear the crust from the edges
and mold the center to what I want
What I think I need

My lover so handsome and clever
so very pleasing to the eye
I dig down deeper and find
nothing
nothing worth keeping

Now, whole wheat, that's something else.
Course, and slightly crunchy
It leaves a sweet aftertaste that nourishes
your body

My soul knows the difference
Why can't my mind catch up?
I'm hungry for a good substantial bread....
