Day 4 of 30 Eye to the Apple

Eye To The Apple

Philomena gave her apple a crunch

one bite down, a little snack to munch,

But something didn't seem quite right
with this red orb, 

a sourness was afoot,

a strange flavor, that to this discerning lady, did very much off-put.

What a complete disappointment! 

Her diet now had a gustatory fly in the ointment. 

Was it a sign to eat a sugary sweet...

was her willpower really that desperately weak?

"No, I will persevere! 

My tongue may already be accosted

my hunger irretrievably frosted,

but with my sight this problem I must grapple."

She raised her glove-covered arm and put her eye to the apple.
