Loco Moco Lunch Time

The bright sun through the window

The cool air conditioning

after a hard workout

of rapid climb, it is

Loco Moco Lunch Time!

The warmth of a plate lunch

eggs, gravy, meat, and rice

so good it should be considered

payment for war crimes

Loco Moco Lunch Time!

A man approaches

grizzled and unkempt

homeless and hopeless

and fear in his eyes

“could you spare a dime?”

“of course you can!” because it is

Loco Moco Lunch Time!

“I haven't seen a smile in a while”

the man explains breaking eye contact,

“and you're a man of the Good Book?”

“Yes sir—have it in my backpack in fact.”

“Then can you explain how I can be eternally sublime!”

“Yes, yes, I can because right now, it is

Loco Moco Lunch Time!”
