hey, man
it’s summer
and you know
what’s in store
potato bun top
thin layer o’ mayo
blue cheese
fried egg
tomato
lettuce
bubba goodness gracious
special sauce
potato bun bottom
served with whatever
catches your sweet teeth
it’s summer, man
and the candle wick
is halfway burnt through
do you remember what
I told you about them
firecracker popsicle
mornings
it’s good to know
it still holds true
even when my hair
is no longer short
but now goes on
for tree fiddy
baby maybe four
leagues
