Ode to Keto Ice Cream (Amongst Other Things)

Like a woman,
you're best if left
out on the counter
for 10-15 minutes.

With summer split,
I get back to it:
as little carbs as possible,
in case I fly somewhere
where I may take my shirt off.

Sweets are my main drug,
and this one is all I can afford,
peanut butter fudge for body and soul,
while watching tv at night.

But ice cream has always
kinda hurt my throat;
I wonder if that happens to others,
and I wonder if we'll ever be
naked together again.

I'd prefer chocolate chip cookies,
of course, however the Keto kind
aren't the best, so I have to settle,
just like you and I do the rest of the time.
