Have a nice day, now

Scribbles on a McDonald’s napkin

thoughts so far and so near

from McArabia to McGreek

and Big Macamericana as well

Carbs

proteins

fats

minerals

and vitamins

These things of life

will not be so

if not for

water

So here’s a Coke

for it’s got

water

Have a nice day, now

_Note: I haven’t sold out to corporates. In fact, if anything, I’d encourage a healthy, balanced diet of coffee and chocolate. Besides, a 400 fils cheeseburger should raise a lot of questions. For one, its low price is not exactly a miracle of economics (otherwise we’d probably end world famine and malnutrition.) It probably has more to do with McDonald’s definition of a cheeseburger than it has to do with economics.
