Ode to Breakfast Sandwich

I think of you before I go to sleep.
I imagine your savoriness between my lips.
When I awake, you are gone.
Your bacon, egg and cheese on a buttermilk biscuit
will never be mine today.

I search and search until I find
your wrapper in the garbage.

The Boy has taken you from me
Yesterday
While I was walking the dog.

Curse you Boy and your rapid growth
Eating all of the food in the fridge
Leaving me with yogurt
Granola
Blueberries
And Kale
For breakfast.
This isn't bad
but it isn't awesome either.
