How To Mess Up Your Day

Drawing of 3 burgers, each sadder than the last
Fast Food Disappointment

Imagine you went to McDonalds,

and instead of: “Enjoy!”

they said simply, “Endure!”

*

As you rise, in surprise,

With your burger and fries.

They add, “Would you like flies with that, sir?”

*

And their smiles are all fake,

Like your strawberry shake,

which hasn’t been.

Let alone stirred.

*

So “Have a Nice Day!”

Well — I started that way –

Although now I’m not really so sure.
