    Ode to Diet Coke

    "On Second Thought, I'll Stick with my Diet Coke . . .": an ode to diet crap, and a response to (our) Rebecca Traister

    What I crave are taste and crunch.

    So I'm havin' good pizza, I'm havin' some sushi;

    I'm eating cheeseburger and growing like "John Belushi."

    I'm now no stick--there's no resolvin' it,

    So gimme your our Cake--no fork, I'll shovel it!"
