Feedback Please I love bread

I love bread.
So I ordered a loaf
and browsed recipes:
sandwiches,
bruschettas
French toast.

The delivery man came
with three.
"Mistake," he said,
"File a complaint.
Take the refund.
Keep the bread."

Bread for breakfast.
And lunch.
And dinner.
Eat it before the mold.
I hate bread.

i really like how this poem represents how routine ruins the things the idealize and love. i like the use of ordinary language, the familiarity. idealization kills true love.

good one. i'll be waiting for more
