Sandwich

Waiting for a veal parmesan sandwich.
Overcome with anticipation.
I drum my fingers while I wait.
It will probably be disappointing.
It arrives.
It’s not disappointing.
It is a delicious expression of everything good.
Bread.
Cheese.
Sauce.
Meat.
I am rejuvenated.
Invigorated.
Life is a joy.
For me.
For the baby cow?

Not so much.

  1. Glad Dad jumped on the poetry bandwagon this week. Now I feel bad for grilling you about the word \”refreshed.\” Maybe I'm just trying to beat the unique flavor out of your poetry sandwich. Maybe that unusual word choice was exactly what was needed.
