Ode to a Cheeseburger

Anticipation has deflated
The burger was delicious, but that is all

What was I expecting?
A psychedelic happening in my mouth?
With a liquid light show oozing from the folds of meat
As angels in gogo boots danced on gooey firmament?

I try to imagine the burger better:
A sharper taste of charcoal
Juicier meat
Perhaps a thinner patty
Or a sharp cheddar replacing the square of yellow.

The burger is fine
But just a burger.
