Making A Sandwich Poem by Micah Krahn

Making A Sandwich



The most unlikeliest of poems, often come from the tastiest ideas..
When preparing food, i first wash my hands, the more soap the better.
Appliances. Waffle maker or Toaster? Toaster. Tool of choice. Stainless Steel Knife.
selecting my ingredients for my conjuration of eatery, is the next goal on my itinerary.
Bacon. Unpackaging the bacon, from the fridge, putting a few strands on the pan.Beginning to sizzle..
Bread. Unwrapping, the loaf of bread, selecting the slices of preference.placing them inside the toaster. Snap the switch goes on.90 seconds of wait.

where’s a clock when you need one?
Ejection! As the toast arises, sweltering and encrustingly hardened.Knife quickly slathering the mayonnaise across the crusty surface of the toast.

Both slices.
First Layer is lettuce, greenest, tastiest part of freshness.
Secondly then the juicy blood red tomatoes.Is the bacon ready? Yes! Thank goodness, crispy awesomeness.
What else? Umm.. Cucumber!
Slicing the cucumber with ease.one, two.. this is no spa treatment, cut more of them! three, four, five, six. That should do it.
Mmmmm, looks good.. already see the mayonnaise oozing out..clean up time before the real enjoyment begins.
Wrapping up the loaf of bread and neatly tucking it back into the pantry, grabbing the lid for the mayo, tucking it back into the refrigeration unit.Tomatoes back in the fridge. Lettuce also back in the veggie portion of the fridge.Bacon back in the fridge.
What’s left? Ahh, clean the counter, Hot wash cloth.Kitchen finally clean. Open the cupboard take out a plate.Place the sandwich on the plate.
Now. That. Juicy. Sandwich. Belongs. To. Me.
As I move in and take the first bite. Delicious! Each taste, worth every bite.
All finished.
Nothing left but the plate, and I’m not gonna eat that.Wanting more but not relishing making another mess.
Maybe Next Time…
