Here's some Route 66 love. . . - a photo on Flickriver

for every greasy spoon
you slurped red-bean chili,
biscuts & gravy and chicken
fried steak, for every diner,
café and dive along Route 66
and Ozarks backroads, those
out-of-the-way, vanished
mom & pops with the hound
on the porch and the car up
on blocks, those juke joints,
luncheonettes and chophouses:
Red’s Giant Hamburg, Casper’s
and Aunt Martha’s, Red Onion,
Dowd’s Catfish and BBQ, deep
fried, slab of ribs, burnt ends,
and give some love to Whisler’s
Drive Up, Joe’s Hot Dogs, Cookin’
From Scratch, and Slice of Pie
in Rolla, Ted Drewes frozen treats,
Maid-Rite, Blue Owl homemade,
Billy Gail’s, Dairyland with Nat King Cole
on the jukebox crooning “Get Your Kicks,”
and where are Todd Stiles and Buz Murdock
in their sleek Chevy Corvette and
where are those hand-spun shakes
and fluffy pancakes of yesteryear and
if you remember the song, now’s
the time to sing along
