Toasted Goodness

Toasted goodness
straight off the pan
The delighting sandwich
to feed your hunger

Two pieces
of one whole
See their insides
as you pull it

Has the filling
somehow gone bad?
Or will it be
good enough to eat?

If you start to pull
the pieces too much
Will you expect the break
or will you pretend to not?

Maybe the sandwich
wanted a chance
To not be eaten
by someone so careless

Did you notice
the satisfying pull?
The food worked so hard
yet you didn't care

Toasted goodness
it dreads the pan
Because if it goes
then you will come
