the flounder sandwich

the flounder
sandwich is a spring special 
at the fast
food drive-thru.
four ninety-five,
it says on the sign.
which includes fries
and a medium
drink.
limited engagement.
i wonder if i should take
a chance.
i haven't had fish in over
two years now.
just calamari,
rubber gaskets from the sea,
batter fried and dipped
in an orange sauce
to give it taste.
a basket of those set
me back
three bills at the ER.
