Go Large

Was in Burger King when I spied her
The other staff, mingers beside her
I ordered, hot under the collar
She asked me, go large for a dollar?

Next day, I went there quite late
I asked if she’d come on a date
You buying? I heard her boss holler
She guessed I’d go large for a dollar 

We had a good date and she said
Why don’t you take me to bed
She frowned at my ‘eager young scholar’
‘So, do you go large for a dollar?’

Interesting pickup at a Burger King. I got several good chuckles out of your verse. So, I can't help but ask: "Did you go large for a dollar?" Is there a sequel to this one?

To be honest, there are only so many good rhymes for Dollar... Pound and quid, possibly slightly more but I decided to stick with dollar. Never have I met anyone who referred to their manhood as their ‘eager young scholar’ but if it gets the message across then that’s okay by me. No sequel planned but I rarely know today what I’ll write tomorrow, so it’s anybody’s guess. Thanks for dropping in. Terry.
