dont talk with your mouth full

people order dishes they feel good about
the scent drives them mad with want
they explain spending the cash as a symbol of their desire
and reflective of their appreciation for fine cooking

then, much later
when the check comes
and they feel bloated
and crampy
and ill

they claim they were force-fed
they bemoan the money they spent
they talk of the ruse of the waiter
they curse the time spent on the dinner
