My Ideal, Multi - Layered Cheeseburger Poem by DM W

My Ideal, Multi - Layered Cheeseburger

Rating: 5.0


Sometimes I'm consumed by a pressing urge
To indulge in a multi- layered cheese burger:
Like the wild ones created by Claes Oldenburg.
Indeed, I would perhaps venture even further.
Mine would be filled with fried onions and lettuce,
Tomatoes and smeared with mustard and mayonnaise.
And I might add some pickles, and how could one forget,
Several rashers of smoked bacon? O happy days!
My textured cheese burger would be a work of art,
But unlike Oldenburg's, surely bad for my heart.
Especially, when maybe accompanied by
A large, sugary milkshake and salty French fries.

Thank you Homer Simpson! And you forgot the doughnuts! You carry on eating these Dominic you're a candidate for heart attack good sir, but, when easy food temptation calls for an empty stomach... the torpedoes! A junk food poem but, written in a far but junk way.10+ and take care when watching your cholesterol.
