Hot Dog Monster
Link sweats
odiferous
Pennons wrap around my senses
encased by moonshine rye
Lingering in salted shadows
fermented foot dense and sour
Coarse stone-ground vociferations
sizzle from a shallow belly
Does it relish in my fear?
Brine boils in my throat as it draws near
Is this my penance?
No, I expunge this nightmare menace
“Begone you bun-covered banger!”
I exclaim,
“I am a vegetarian.”
