700 Watt Sunbeam

I need you more than I care to admit,

but it is a love/hate relationship.

When I'm lazy and famished, you're always there

to bring me out of my hangry despair.

You were from Walmart, small and cheap,

and you make the cutest "beep beep beeps."

I'm getting to know you better day by day

Like those pre-set buttons? No, stay away.

You don't heat evenly and things come out cold

but when you warm up my coffee, that is pure gold.

You are my little food companion cube

and microwave, that it is why I love you.
