Fast Food At Midnight Poem by Donal Mahoney

Fast Food At Midnight



A drunk comes into McDonald’s
staggers to the counter
is waited on by a young lady

who looks like his wife
years ago when he proposed.
Drunk says nothing, just stares,

mouth agape, until the
manager hustles forward,
sensing a sale

leans over the counter
says to the drunk,
“Want fries with her? ”
