eating in the dining room
by Lauren Singerand so your triad of miracles has failed you.
the definition in the silverware marks for
special occasions. we bring out the good china
and fold our napkins cross our laps
and whisper out our belches in attempts to say
everything is always this beautiful,
and everything will always be okay. 08/14/2007 Posted on 08/15/2007
