A landmark to history, "the
Wolverine," as we called it,
Has weathered time and tragedy.
The neon sign in the window
of the "Greasy Spoon," commands
Attention during opening time.
The booths line the side of the
Wall, with stools around the counter.
They are upholstered in red vinyl
And are rough, faded and torn.
The isle way tile is worn
And is a dingy color, almost black.
Old pictures from different eras
Dot the walls. Lime green
Is the shade, with smudged
Dirt, and fingerprints impaled.
The waitress is tired, but
Always smiling. The food
Is Short-Ordered and greasy;
Cheap price, and good conversation.
The Wolvering is king of the
"Greasy Spoons" on Michigan Avenue.
