GUMMY BEARS
Mike Berger, PhD
I crave sugar—-
a ton more than the average person.
I have a pathological need and become
fixated. My focus narrows so I can
only in vision gummy bears.
In days gone by I would gobble down
a whole package, stuffing my mouth.
I usually got sick after. I learned to
tame that ravenous beast inside me;
that ugly thing that drove me to woof
a ton of gummy bears.
Now, when things get tough and I am
stressed to the max, the ugly beast
raises its head and the cravings begin.
When that happens I eat just one bear
at that time. It takes about seven for
the violent tremors to stop.
