Table Talk

As our Night time dinner ends

Our pile of pain with no amends

Beside a plate of chicken bones

with uncooked beans and ringing phones

Atop a pool of chocolate milk

staining brown the vinyl silk

Beneath a tub of cream perspiring

the 'eat-by' date long past expiring

Our scuffle rages long and hard

until the beef is dry and charred

But as our trust is at a loss

We still can say 'please pass the sauce'

End
