short order cook poetics

i would've been an awesome short order cook.  it's a gift.  i recall that moment in the movie ferris bueller's day off [1986] when cameron was asked by sloane what he thinks ferris will be out of high school.  short order cook on venus, said cameron.  i took that to heart.  some poets have copious & various gifts.  some can paint.  others can make music.  others still can take photographs.  me, i can organize a small kitchen.  i can rotate stock.  i can keep the grill cooking.  i can make a mean burger & hot dog.  you want a lemon freeze?  a soft serve ice cream cone?  i can make one for you, take your money & then give you change.  i cook nothing fancy.  burgers, hot dogs, pizza, popcorn.  like the snack bar you'd frequent at the drive-in theater or at your kid's little league game.  you should see me as i go.  like an efficient whirlwind.  a real contender.
