These burgers used to cost just one dollar
before the dollar menu turned into
the value menu. I speak and holler
at the cashier to take my order through
the drive through microphone: "I'll have a drink,
a large fries, two Mcdoubles, two apple
pies, and that will be it.” I sit back, think
if there is anything else I want, pull
money out of my wallet to pay for
my meal, take my items from the window
ask the cashier if she can give me more
ketchup, sauce that allows me to endow
my fries with a sweet and salty goodness:
the flavor brings me to the point of bliss.
