The Office Diet

Yes, I put blueberries in my salad!


Monday oath
No more snacks
Bring salad

Tuesday comes
Brownies here
Thanks a lot 

Next day sad
Brownies gone
Wish I had

Thursday blah
Need caffeine 
Sugar too

Friday fail
Candy spree
Start again 

Yay weekend
Exercise
No junk food

I think this is my first tricube poem (3x3). Fun form! It’s supposed to be three stanzas, but whatever ~ we can call this a double tricube. I was inspired by the Tanka Tuesday challenge

  2. Three, six, whatever -- a stanza diet is hard to stick to.

    Cute idea and a relatable issue. In the last office I worked at, there was one person who sometimes brought in healthy stuff like fruit for the snack table. I think I was the only person who ever took any.

    1. IKR? At our old location, I used to buy a Snickers bar on the daily around 3pm. Thank goodness that’s not easily available now!
