Biscuit in a Cone

There’s a biscuit in my cone
Just the one on its own
I’ve tried with my thumbs
But I can’t reach with my tongue

Food is stuck in this plastic
Just like a carrot on a stick
Is it turkey or is it fish?
How’d it get here from my dish?

A snack trapped in my field of view

Allurement, enticement, temptation too

I cross my fingers I cross my eyes

That it will fall into my mouth as a surprise

There’s much more for me to eat

But I finished that box of treats…

My snout is too short and stubby

So I stick my cone into food to get it grubby

I can’t see through my cone

It’s so blurry in this dome

The smudges of gunk are so thick

This is my carrot on a stick.
