What does Dad know?

They wanted Pizza Pockets
Begged and pleaded
Clamored for savory strudels
Dreamed of marinara pop tarts
Yearned for Italian empanadas
I tried to warn them
Tried to help them understand
Tried to share a bit of wisdom
But they couldn’t hear it
They couldn’t understand
They insisted
So… I bought Pizza Pockets
Now here we sit
Unimpressed and hungry nonetheless
Now we’re all on the same page
Pizza Pockets aren’t great
These kids have so much to learn
