The following poem was written by Arnot McCallum. Enjoy! (I just wouldn't suggest reading it while eating.)

Road Kill Cafe

I had my dinner yesterday

In a place they call "Road Kill Cafe".

They serve their dishes all well done,

Scraped off Highway 401.

There's Frog Leg Pasta, "A La Mode".

Squirrel Lasagne, "A La Road".

Hamster Hash

Rack of Coon

Chunk of Skunk

Leg of Loon.

Fat Free Cat

Pit Bull Pie

Seagull Soup

With Eagle's eye.

The Buffalo Wings are very good.

They lift them gently from the hood.

Turtle Toes are quite a deal,

They serve them hot, right off the wheel.

Ground Hound meatballs,

Souffle of Snake,

Deep Ditch Rooster

Flattened Drake.

The Chef is really quite a "fella"

I'm sure he's carrying Salmonella.

The food is tasty...

The food is dandy,

Just keep your health card close and handy.
