The Microwave Meal Cafe
By J.R.A.Gigney
Table for two, Sir?
Follow me, Sir.
Nice table here, Sir.
Menus, Sir?
Drinks to begin, Sir?
Well there's,
Lemonade,
Coke or Pepsi,
(It's your choice, Sir)
Wine from a box,
Red or White.
How about a beer?
Bitter, ale or lite?
You want some O.J?
That's okay!
Now for the food that comes your way...
Plastic meat from a plastic box,
Microwaved to perfection.
Just right for you to eat.
Plastic veg in plastic bags,
Boiled or microwaved until al dente,
And all of this for £10:20.
Plastic chicken in a basket,
Our speciality!
Plastic chilli with plastic nachos,
All of these are delicacies!
May I ask why you seem to be leaving?
It did say on the door!
You could make it at home for cheaper!
Well how on earth do you know?
Please come back I'm here to serve you,
Guide you through our wondrous meals.
Oh!
They've gone!
Now that's a shame,
And they didn't leave a tip...
Look another party's entered!
Will that be a table for six?
