pan cake

griddle's hot
stomach's vast
think its time
for break o'
fast

drizzle syrup
on empty plate
hurry'p mama
with my pan
cake

heap butter
lips savor: smack!
bring me another
stack-a' flap-
Jack

fork quick
jaws be quicker
goes down right
like sweet corn
liquor

hunger's gone
the platter's clean
flown like bullets
from a
magazine

late t'work
so i gotta roll
belly's filled
wit'at pan fried
gold
