Green Fried Potatoes

I sat to eat with
some I never knew
And ordered from a list
the special dish.
I ate it to
my appetites content.
Some small talk here and there
and then I left.

There’s nothing like good food
with good people.

So, later in the night,
I went with you.
We went for everything
that we could wish.
Half-empty plates:
Clear signs we over-spent.
But, “Oh well,”
that’s part of all the fun.
