Photo Montage: El Camino as Haiku


We thought 'twas a bar
Foolishly not entering
'Til told that was wrong.


Ancestral decor
Mixed the contemporary
with traditional.


Packed with hungry folk
Red lights twinkle and glimmer
Tummies craving grows.


Promising menu
A fusion of tex and mex
Will not break the bank.


Praise Virgin Mary
Surrounded by artful leaf
My saliva flows.


Cousin and girlfriend
Ponder the selections well
Perhaps the special?


Not just one but four
Hot, flavorful, gooey, green,
A taste for us all.


Feeling so parched
One dollar adds tomato
Chelada it is.


Asked for extra juice
Perhaps it was a bit much
Not a giant fan.


Decided upon
Packed with sweet potato and
Sweet crema on top.


Very much enjoyed
Bean and rice presentation
Tasty treat in pot.


A bit of a wait
4 way split of sugary
Delightful churro.


I had to go pee
An exciting bathroom trip
Yielded door decor.


Saints be praised, lit flame
Offers homage to those gods
Dollar candles burn.


Mask hides emotion
I prefer to imagine
Camino is pleased.


A wet dreary night
How appropriate to end
Glistening outside.
