Incredible Brummie Brekkie

I said I like it here
the people are nice
down to earth types
the sort I get on with.
She said you can't decide all that
on the basis of one breakfast roll!
I'd gone for the full breakfast
as it happened,
not the bacon roll
but that's beside the point.
The service was polite.
A woman in a plastic pinny
made a joke about
free range eggs
and called me ducky.
All the same, she said
it's three years of your life
you've got your career to think about.
But Mum they do bottomless cups of coffee
and the ketchup sachets are free!
But dear, it's three years
you can't pick out your university career
on the basis of two fried eggs and chips.

But you can you know.
