Lengthwise

 

It was on the eighth mile when I felt the hunger pangs
And the sweat in my eyes produced some salty tears
Then the idea popped into my head and I said to myself:
“Today I’m getting big juicy burger and some craft beers”

My friend and I talked about getting some drinks
So later that afternoon we headed over to Lengthwise
While enjoying a nice golden ale we shared our tales
I slowly savored my bacon cheese burger with fries

Oh but that patty in a beer baked Focaccia bun was exquisite
The mayo, the cheese, the ratio of onion, lettuce and tomato
The flavors coming together in a perfect ensemble of taste
I felt compelled to compose a prose to this perfect combo

Later on that night I went to bed with a smile on my face
Knowing I ran ten miles and on my highest gears
My visit to Lengthwise gave me quite the surprise
As I dream dreams of yummy burgers and tasty beers
