Sliced meatThe deli counter helper greets
And slices up requested meats,Then holds a slice for my review;“Too thin,” I say, “Let’s try anew.”Begrudgingly, the clerk tries twice;Returns, presents another sliceWhich seems quite every bit as thin;“No. Thicker, please!” So once againThe process must again repeat;I cede the case, and take the meatBut wonder as I leave the lineHas this been all a game of mind?Did clerk in fact adjust the blade;Was any alteration made?Is thicker/thinner all a phony?Entire act, perhaps, baloney?Read more Munday Verse
