Doughnuts For Sale Poem by Raj Arumugam

O come buy doughnuts
doughnuts

doughnuts for sale

sweet ones, ladies
and yummy ones, gents
precious doughnuts
you’ve never seen in your lands
I made them with my own hands
each sugary and yum to the core
round and hollow in the middle
each doughnut like Einstein’s universe

O come buy doughnuts
doughnuts
doughnuts
doughnuts for sale

colorful doughnuts
I have for you gathered here
I climbed the skies
to steal a color off each rainbow
that appears and disappears
so have a blue doughnut
a red or pink or green or purple
any color you will
or a psychedelic one if that please you more

O look at this love doughnut trick:
it fits your fingers like a huge wedding ring
and your beloved bites through
and then gets to your finger
and has to lick off every dropp of sugar
and then kisses you on your hands
and after that
O, modesty forbids me to say anything beyond
it’s all up to you
Or would you prefer a doughnut bangle?

O come buy doughnuts
doughnuts
doughnuts
doughnuts for sale
O beautiful ladies
and gentle Sirs
please
make all my doughnuts
disappear within the hour
