Terrific Tuesday With Troubles

Twoday is terrific  Tuesday at TROUBLES  DOUBLES DINER.
EVERY  TUESDAY guests can have a $2 bargain price if they
Order before 2p.m.

2 times  Totally terrific.
Definitely DELICIOUS 
DAZZLINGLY  DELECTABLE
IS that  suspicious?

I said to the waitress TWINIQUE
I'd like to order a meal.
A CHEESE OMELETTE  AND 2 CRAB CAKES.
MAKE IT A DOUBLE if it's not to much trouble.

On second thought  let me have an eggnog 
SHAKE TWO. 
I'D LIKE one meal two eat here and the 
Second meal to take out.
That's Two orders of the same dish.
Did  I FAULTER?

I'M  TWO TIRED.  I Heard the food here 
Is twice as good as all the other  joints.
Twinique  turned to leave and I told her
"Make it quick  and quiet, please.

I observed the place  and realized I was one
Of two customers in the establishment.
She turned to leave and I stopped her a 
Second time two ask her for 2 pints of water
While I waited.

The winds were whipping at the door.  
Is that a twister?  Are they sisters?  I wondered
As two women  entered.  Then  2 minutes later
There were 2 men  entering  hmmm identical twins? I
Mused.

Oh, yes. And I two have a brother we are
Fraternal twins.  Of course!!
The two women left, if you're guessing, you may be
Guessing right.
 They were TWINS.  2 sets of twins.
My LUNCH ARRIVED 22 minutes later.

I rapidly fed my face, with a ravenous appetite.
She  wrapped the second order to go.
I told her  I wanted two double surprise ice creams both
Laced with 2 bananas apiece.
I'm  much much two impatient.

Wrap those to go,  Thank you. 
The two bags were set on the counter 
2 minutes later I took a cab back two
My 2nd  floor apartment  at

22 twin state on second avenue, apartment 2B
