he didn’t know what he wanted…too many choices…the menu shone in a yellow light with the Pepsi emblem in the middle…flies flew ’round it while eggs fried on the griddle…
kept lookin’ at the menu…the black lettering…words like…GARBAGE PLATE…SLIDERS WITH OR WITHOUT CHEESE…BREAKFAST SPECIAL…coffee for a buck…
and there were all these different types of drinks…Orange soda…Mountain Dew…Dr. Pepper…Squirt…he looked at the milk shake selection…still couldn’t decide…chocolate and vanilla…the flies continued swarming the joint…
so he decided on buttered wheat toast and a cup of joe…while others ’round him ate hash browns and ham steaks…sausage patties…omelettes made with real Velvetta cheese…
said a prayer ‘fore he ate his meal…for this we are thankful…
