Dollar Menu

The dollar menu is the only menu.
The wrong word may be the only word.
The sad song is just an echo.
The pavement will have to be repaved.
The train is followed by another train.
The magazine is run by the advertisements.
A blurb is just a name.
The winding road is long.
The river swallows its own tail.
The folder doesn’t belong on the desktop.
The knife ran away with the moon.
The filter welcomes impurities.
The madness is just an affect.
The soil makes room for worms.
The detour is the only way.
The road is the one you’re on.
The mistakes are meant that way.
I know you are but what am I?
The reference is lost on ears.
The movie is best seen from the aisle.
The world is not enough.
The room is far too much.
The galaxy extends this way.
The miracle is we’re not.
The silence is all.
The readiness is rest.
The center is everywhere.
