I like Harvey’s Hash House, a greasy spoon
Could eat there all evening, watching the moon
Love their waffles with caramel chips
Jalapeno omelet helps me do claps and flips
I love their burgers, adore their fries
their cakes are colorful with loads of dyes
cinnamon rolls are bigger than my face
I truly adore eating at this greasy place.
There once was a place soupers called PS
Forgive me if I sound a bit too superc-i-l-i-o-u-s
Bloggers delight with fisticuffs
at spiteful bullies bogus bluffs
One day gone, none got along, all unscrupulous!
Delete them at first, what they falsely implore
Seems one can’t hash it out with an execrator
Or block the gates
of those old reprobates
And poof all gone, it’s what buttons are for!

hash is full of cash
*"rabbit hash is full of cash" is there actual motto. This hidden gem has been a general store in Kentucky since 1831.

The Blue-Collar Kitchen
David J Walker
I remember the aromas of childhood
Emanating from the kitchen stove
Dad’s biscuits every morning
Mom’s fried chicken
On Sunday or the
Hash made of leftover roast
On Monday
I remember frosted cupcakes
After school
And oatmeal raisin cookies
Just out of the oven and
Waiting to cool
Before we could eat them
Don’t ruin your dinner
Mother said
We weren’t rich but
We were well fed
On a blue-collar budget
In the mid-20th century
A curve ball on laced marijuana
Asked mushroom clouds for instant Nirvana
Fainted in magic pursuit
Grew quite square straight on the root
Came down from constellation Tucana
30th August 2020
Tucana is a large faint constellation in the southern
hemisphere containing most of the Small Magellanic Cloud

Chopping the meat of the problem,
I throw in cubes of potatoes -
the proof of my beliefs.
Serving my rehashed dish,
I keep hoping folks will taste it
before the expiration date.

a giant eyeball
flashes
'cross the sky
I fly
to its retina
it blinks
I am trapped
my bed
is soaking wet
my libido
dies
I stand
I fall
to my knees
dragging
what is left of me
gazing
at my oppressor as
a giant eyeball
flashes
'cross the sky
Delicious and warm to eat,
Corned beef hash,
A real treat,
Mix-up mash,
Anything goes,
Or a concocted prose,
Very simple,
Not hard to do,
Carrots, onions potatoes
All in your stew,
Beefy oxos too,
All your own desires,
Best veggies for you,
Just like a poem,
Or a herb garden you grew,
Stir up with your spoon,
Ready very soon,
Smelling great!
Delightful in its taste,
Nothing left to waste,
Poor it on your plates,
Filling for your tummies,
A recipe just for dummies.

Forbidden Pleasure
This morning I had a Hash brown
Something I almost never do
It was greasy and hot
And I liked it a lot
I was sorely tempted
To go back and buy two
The girlish squeals from my booth
Were embarrassing in truth
But I simply could not
Contain my delight
The smile on my face
Could not be erased
As it only grew wider
With each bite
One hundred fifty calories
Seemed as naught to my belly
As I scarfed the last morsel down
And I was not really conscious
Of regret or guilty conscience
Only the memory
Of that Heavenly
…Hash Brown…
Craggy rats and batty facts,
stupid slaps of morbid hats,
sordid snacks coming out with lacerations of the ax-
horrible hacks doin' these attacks.
I'm loopin' it like rope to attach,
only catch ever is a brat,
lettin' um' off as I scooter around and knack-
I've got so many I'm like 'just laugh'.

I wonder if sage Socrates
opined today
And said listen good people to
what I have to say
Where would those people who
are paid just to spin
Fit this sage controversial free
thinker in
Or if Jesus Christ happened to
show up unannounced
And gently our greed and our
hubris renounced
Would we be like doubting
Thomas of old
And need to see for ourselves
the scars and nail holes
The owl of Minerva flies only at
dawn
But the curtain of doubt has
been long since drawn
By Cyberspace knowledge that
frowns on reflection
Sadly rendering so many with
more answers than questions
If the unexamined life becomes
the standard of living
And free thinkers pose
questions to a world less
forgiving
Who's left to take sides in the
age old debate
Is it necessary to deny
knowledge to leave room for
faith.
