To Wean

the fat woman at the grocery store
yelled at her child to kiss her owwie
because she kisses his
in front of me

it was a threat
she would take away his yogurt
if he didn't gently address the wound
on her lumpy leg
I gazed at through her shopping cart

I stared in disdain
then looked around me

shoppers just shopped
checkers just checked
and the line people just
shuffled along

take my advice, child

as soon you are able - leave
and in the meantime
going without yogurt doesn't seem so bad

going without is so novel
even I may begin to try it
I think that I may be ready
to be weaned
of yogurt

I like the idea of this...
What in your life could you do with out? What steps can you take to "wean" yourself off of that?

For me, a big one would be less treats, of course. And less food that I don't even really like but eat anyway because it's available and easy... I should probably visit the grocery store once a week..
