Lychee Twist Cone from McDonald's
A hot as heck February afternoon
--
A dollar would soft serve me
the novel creation of golden arches
bending over backwards
for customer satisfaction.
Tinged with the faint hue
of a rosy finish, a twirling
tower of two-in-one;
Too sweet? A tad.
All in all? Not bad.
We do concede that
artificial is our taste,
stifling is our fervour,
but it was a single coin
that brought me
glee in lychee,
paid heed to my
feeling the heat.
In the end we are soft flesh
in hard shells,
rough around the edges
and bumpy along the rind,
but delicate on the inside
and fragile as you'd find.
and so I waited for the plot
twist -
waited, waited,
until
it all melted to nothing.
