the drive-thru menu
has a never ending burger
grilling plump and juicy
and i watch a homeless man
walk by it
and wonder if it makes him hungrier
seeing this image
pushing his cart
through the parking lot
will he dream of burgers and childhood tonight?

- Comment from author about the poem: Some drive-thru menus now show the food being cooked - thought of how it must feel to walk by them on a cold night when you are hungry.

Such an emotive write. Nobody should be hungry in our world.
Very true my friend.
