Buying Donuts

(There is that thing
in every office
that perk,
that fringe benefit,
periodically people
bring in consumables
cookies, pastries, treats
soda, coffee, LaCroix
maybe even movie passes
[the kind you get from Costco
after a substantial purchase])

After passing by
Chicago's own
Glazed and Infused
every day
for two weeks
the desire
for fired dough
became irrefutable
and perhaps
using my office cohorts
as an excuse
I purchased a box full
of those breakfast treats
sharing them
so I could have one
guilt free.
