Last night Eye met a Texan
Debutante
(at least She looked like One)
Who wore pearls
& likes camping —
She was w Her Daughter
Who ate only a salad
that I could see
while She asked Me
about my burger
measly
& a supposed giant mozza stick
which Eye had pictured
looking phallic
butt which arrived
as a flat brown square
not hot enough
& when I got up to pay
I had something stuck
between My 2 Front Teeth
so My Good-bye Smile
was stilted
