prompt: bread and the societal implications of bread (or BATSIO bread for short)

──────

a yeasty aroma and a crackling crust

an illusion of fresh bread gathering dust

i will never taste its authentic form

in this society where bread is the norm

my immune system offers only torment

my lonely tongue shoulders the burden

but my fruitless cravings will never cease

such is the way of one with allergies.
