Peaches And Plums


      I've gotten to the point in life where I'm not sure what to eat. I want to eat healthy, but sometimes I'll forget to eat altogether, only to realize I'm starving. Then, I'll eat any ol' thing just to get by.
      I make bad decisions when I'm hungry. Rather then cooking at home, I'll go out and find food on the streets, because in my hungry mind it takes too long to cook at home. So, I'll roll up to hamburger stand, or a burrito joint. I'll immediately regret it and think about cows and pesticides. I'll ask myself what the heck did I just eat? 
      It doesn't take much to cook. You just need to be prepared, and it's the being prepared part that I need to work on. I just don't know what to make anymore. Everything seems unhealthy. I know that's not true. Or maybe it is? Maybe everything is unhealthy, even kale. Kale could be unhealthy depending on where you get it. Thus, the dilemma. I don't trust the factory farm. I don't trust Whole Foods either. I trust a fruit stand at the local farmers market, but they don't grow kale. And I can't make a living off of peaches and plums. I'll starve to death.
