Ode to a doughnut

Waiting for new Krispy Kreme to open.

Waiting for new Krispy Kreme to open.

I will not, I will not, I will not
Use a cliche for a doughnut.
But for Krispy Kreme
These words are supreme:
They melt in your mouth in a minute.

About Gordon C. Stewart

I've always liked quiet. And, like most people, I've experienced the world's madness. "Be Still! Departure from Collective Madness" (Wipf and Stock Publishers, Jan. 2017) distills 47 years of experiencing stillness and madness as a campus minister and Presbyterian pastor (IL, WI, NY, OH, and MN), poverty criminal law firm executive director, and social commentator. Our cat Lady Barclay reminds me to calm down and be much more still than I would be without her.
