A Short Poem About High End Comestibles

Temporary housing leaves me by a Doughnut Plant
and within walking distance from Two Boots Pizza
and Katz’s Delicatessen.

If there’s other food to eat
I don’t think I know about it.

This would be an unhealthy area
for me to live
though at least
these places require
a bit of traipsing
to get from one
to the other.

Who was it who said
"Food, glorious food!"?
Some punk street trash
who couldn’t afford these treasures,
I’ll tell you that.
