Character Sketch of an ERC Regular 1
I used to scoop bagels
Every Thursday I 'd pick one and
Pull its insides out
While the small, sweaty man would stand
On his toes so he could watch over
The counter to inspect me
Restuff his bagel with four scoops of
Chicken salad, honey mustard, extra bacon
The same way I had done it for months and months
And though I knew what was coming
I still couldn't help but bristle when
Sipping from his diet soda
He looked through me and he barked
A terrier's bark
"I asked for Tofu Cream Cheese"
