we ate at this amazing burger joint tonight

After slogging through a day of wandering and 

Words less crafted than sold

We waited 

The last two burgers 

Did not appear

Did not appear

Our server came over to say

I took the last two burgers off your bill

They are coming

But something happened to slow them up in the kitchen

A quiet storm…

Huh, I thought

All those empty words all day

And here she is 

A poet.
