  MARMALADE
by Kennedy O'Brien
  Marmalade
On my toast it's just like jam
Almost a habit and not a plan
Marmalade is made from citrus fruit and then it's put in a jar
I like to swirl it in a circle with the rind and all
Marmalade
You can eat it in a kitchen
Or you can spread it in a shop
Marmalade can be the je ne sais quoi flavour in a cake
Or a simple bit of sweet on the side of your plate
Marmalade
Marmalade is not restricted to breakfast
Because marmalade can be had at any time of day
In a slightly different form it's called a chutney
But I digress
Marmalade
Under the wrong conditions marmalade can taste very sour
Depends on the moment and the rightness of the hour
I love marmalade
I eat it every week
I love marmalade
I love it double sweet
On my toast or on some bread
In my kitchen or in my bed
Marmalade
On a biscuit it can be perfectly fine in the middle of the night
Marmalade can get stuck on you
Or you can get stuck on it
Marmalade
It can't quite be your best friend
But it can come close and stay until the end
Marmalade just needs a surface
It's a compote that needs to be heard
Marmalade
Miss a bite and mess up your beard
Marmalade can stay dormant for years
In the icebox if the lid is tight
With a box of saltines it can feed one for a week
Marmalade can be a condiment and a compliment to any meal
On it's own or mixed in a food
Marmalade depends on how you feel
Marmalade
