A’walkin round in Lerner,
Looking for a treat.
Thought: well im close to Ferris,
But all they ever have is meat!
Chicken, bacon, sausage, pepperoni on their pies,
Ferris Booth Commons is hard to see with my strictly plant based eyes.
But alas it’s seven,
An’ I’ve a meeting at eight,
So in Lerner I must dine.
I swipe my card and prepare for the fate
Of a meal that’s truly…fine.
My eyes scan the hot dining trays, seeing animal too and fro,
I shake my head, filled with dread, to the Action Station I must go.
I shuffle up, as an unexpectedly succulent scent I sniff,
My salvation reads up on the screen: VEGAN CHORIZO.
Oh joy, oh wondrous day this is, a shiver down my spine,
You are so underappreciated my love, but at least there ain’t no line.
I say with glee, “Chorizo Please, and every single side”
Sour Cream, and beans, and chips galore, my chest bursts with pride.
Seasoned just so, you should always know, you’re the best thing on my spoon.
I love you, Vegan Chorizo, won’t you please come again soon.
