Mike du Jour by Mike Lester for October 02, 2023

That a leather slipper?

It’s name is Moo Shu Pork

But I still eat it with a fork.

Sue was overly stressed

Her comment merely in jest.

So grab a bottle we’ll pop the cork.

Somebody cleans the kitchenette fridge on Friday, thankfully.

The break room’s where folks keep their food / To steal it would just be plain rude / purloining a dish / just cause you’re peckish / will end in revenge on you, dude!

Lost in a thought with my neck slightly bent

Just look at the time — who knows where it went?

The gift of the verse

Feels more like a curse

And of no use at all when it’s time to pay rent

Food thievery is real Though many say, “No big deal.” Tis better by farThan stray fingers dipped in jarsHaving eaten from other people’s meals.

Whew!

I repeated that last panel as sung; and ended by buying my tongue. Thanks Mike!

LOL! Good one! ☺️
