My body is

A hollow cylinder pleading to be filled.

The echoing roars can be heard from miles away.

As I enter the diner,

A heavy stream

Of warm munchy bread

Hit my nostrils.

Eagerly,

I sat down

On one of those

Red

Puffy

Couches.

One hundred and six

Different

colossal

meaty

Hamburgers

On the menu.

BBQ

Vegan

Vegetarian

Chipotle

Cheesy

I can’t think

My eyes are lost on the printed

words and images.

I’m drooling.

I want them all.

Bacon,

My favorite.

The chosen one.

I stretch my hand to order

And the waitress appears.

But she stops,

Right

In

The

Center.

“This is the last burger”

She said,

As she holds my baby

in her tray.

Tension,

As all eyeballs turned

To see her.

Not the waitress,

Gorgeous burger.

Into starved lions.

Now a gazelle,

In the middle of an arena.
