Poem: The Half-Eaten Burrito

Hispanic treat tightly wrapped in flour
You light my day from dim and dower

From the nights of intoxication
Gives awaking justification

Oh the beans, oh the cheese!
Makes me buckle at my knees

Now I add a little sauce
Dancing like Baryshnikov

Why did I only eat the half of you
When my night of drinking was through?

Did I pass out, did I bump my head
Why was I not fully fed?

It doesn't matter it's nearing noon
I'm eating like a starved baboon

Now pain my heart must undergo
I finished my half-eaten burrito.
