social
first the potato peeler
now the after-school
cold decisions to be made
tickets unboughten
soft december snow sits
on shiny black headstone
a deafening introverted eulogy
chocolate cake behind the chair
they smile, polite
a weak story
but i will tell it
again
and again
and again
because that is what i can do
that is all i can offer
