No starters

My whole life’s the part

Where I don’t order a starter

When everyone else does, so

It takes one hour for my food to arrive.

Everyone else’s grub looks really good. Me, starving meanwhile.

Worst of all,

Guy I most hate’s got a meal looks way better than mine.

I mutter through toasts, no goodbyes when I have to go,

No surprise then when no one even noticed.

Feast leaving ghost,

About as welcome as fleas on a retriever’s coat.
