Filling The Sandwich Only Sounds Dirty

Another piece inspired by The American Sandwich.


Recession Story

During the open mike, a girl stepped up and announced she quit her job.
Audience hustled and chattered like ants trapped under a drinking glass.
What job? What's the pay? the name, address? Bitch just read a poem and stepped down.

Wonderfully described, you leave the reader with much to ponder, I like the image you leave with me, of the open mike poetry reading.
