Mrs. Manhattan Eats American

Hid beneath a brown woollen hat
shaped like nothing and smelling of cat
Brown faced and wrinkled
Mrs Manhattan sets forth
Determined to eat American

She stomps to the supermarket
Surveys the marshalled wares
With a general’s eye
Critically inspects ingredients

Only name, rank and calorific value
Buys hot dogs
Popcorn
And of course apple pie

Pushing her trolley before her
Deadlier than any Sherman
She marches home
To eat American
