Yuppie's Incantation

Dear Lady of Perpetual Despair,
Please heed my desperate prayer
I've been waiting 20 minutes in this line to buy heirloom tomatoes
But what if the Fromagerie closes in the meantime?
How can I face my friends without the mozzarella? What will I drizzle oil on?
You maybe a virgin, but my oil is even  more so
Don't let it all go to waste
See that woman at the front of the line, wearing those aviators and last season's Tom's?
Please make her go away hurry it up
Thou art blessed amongst women, but somewhat lacking in perception
When I said "give us this day our daily bread",
I didn't mean the sliced variety. I thought you knew.
