Greasy spoon at the corner hot air welcomes midnight stroller tables with fork reliefs cooking staff beats the heat... fries sizzle in their vat hot plate is loyally scraped to the tune of Quebec country.. and artsy clients waggle in wonder where they've all been greasy spoon and sunflower forks adorn those table tops crowned each with a glass filled sugar shaker the fries sizzles a hamburger gets tossed on a griddle and out in front is a trio of fiddles.... fries still sizzle the hamburger turns its rightful cooked colour did I say this was the witching hour? for some artsy clients who'd prefer to eat at least there's room as the cooks beat the heat.

okay..I admit..I may be overanalyzing, but there has to be more to this poem than food..but..All I can think of is how hungry it makes me for a quick burger and fries right now. *sigh* Distance is the prison for our bodies, but no prison could weaken our passion. |

of course there's more than fries here...like an atmosphere of relax despite the sweltering heat.Thanks for bumping this Temptress, Joyce and One Heart for sharing [This message has been edited by ecrivan (07-05-2002 08:49 AM).] |
