My dunkin’ Donut Muslim girlfriend
working the donut stand
I always get an extra donut gratis
or a couple extra hash browns
in my serving
She smiles and winks
3 donuts is more
than I can eat in one sitting
but I smile back anyway
I end up throwing pieces
of coconut donut
to the birds on the platform
however unwelcome that might be
If feeding birds
was her objective:
Kudos on a job
well manipulated
I’ll be on my train home
in a matter of minutes
but I do look forward
to seeing her smile again
