Queuing Up at Avalon

I’m always in someone’s way

no matter what I do or say

Can almost hear an audible wine

Each time I queue up in the line

I step to the left or to the right

Trying to keep myself out of sight

And someone always asked if I’m in line

I say I already ordered and paid for mine

Always trying to find a place to stand

And not up in no man’s land

I hold my drink and stand and wait

For my name called with food and plate

Sometimes burgers, bagels, or fries

Or apple turnovers or another surprise

The wait is always long for my food

Because many other people know it’s good

Every Sunday morning, this is my treat

As I stop into Avalon for something to eat

So many times it’s kind of insane

I drop frequently and they know my name…
