Literary Thoughts on the Late Twinkie

...with the word "thoughts" used rather loosely. Come to think of it, "literary" is being used rather loosely, too.

Ode to a Twinkie
There once was a Twinkie from Hostess.
Folks liked the filling the mostess.
     Yellow cake filled with goo;
     Oh, the shelf life, too!
But, since Hostess went broke, it's a ghostess.

The Twinkie's Revenge
You think I'm dead
And dearly departed;
I'm here to tell you,
I've only just started.

A roach can survive
A nuclear war
But I can endure
So much more.

Hostess is broke
You'll no longer see 'em;
I'll stay forever
"fresh" in a museum.
