[hometext] => Well i guess you could say that this is paying homage to Sir John Betjeman... but it wasn't a concious decision. This was written in Burger King!
[bodytext] => Come all of you who wish to dine On saltless cardboard chips And burgers lettuced sparingly Come shove between your lips Step through the threshold of this place And let yourself consume As much as you can fit inside For in you there is room For several value saving meals Complete with icy coke Wrapped up in cheapest paper bags And ice cream too (no joke) Come in out of that nasty sun And sit inside of here With strip lights we will light you up You’ll grin from ear to ear Your taste buds we won’t stimulate Your mind will turn to slush Just close your eyes and masticate Swallow, Belch and Flush Stop thinking about quality It’s quantity we do It may be bland as English sand But there’s enough for you Don’t worry about healthiness And other myths like that Fast cooking times and stealthy ness Will help you to get fat It is our job to fill the holes The chasms of your tums The emptiness inside your souls With stuck together crumbs And barely thawed out vegetables And several types of meat And barely recognizable Things that used to bleat And unidentifiable Chunks as grey as sleet Shove it in, eat up the world Swallow, Belch, Repeat.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
