Perplexing Hot Dogs and Hamburgers

As confused as I am
that hamburgers are made of beef,
not ham,
I get no relief
from the mental fog
induced by a hotdog.

Excellent culinary analysis... Do you work for the New York Thymes or the Los Angeles Toast, Sir? I have a position open here at 'Poetry Slop,' if you might be interested. All you can stomach (and keep down) is one of our most attractive benefits... Keep smiling, David.

I enjoyed reading your creative/fun write. Have you ever tried a veggie burger??? Put everything on it and it is pretty good. If you are cooking, I will take a hotdog dressed. Keep the fun coming as you go writing away...............

Oh yes! Actually, I only eat veggie burgers and veggie dogs, because I am a vegetarian!
