819. FAMILY GUESTS

FAMILY GUESTS
Wanting nothing, getting less. I, not you, remark
fitfully upon the rest. 'Here is our buried angel, here
is the place we were born, I remember the baseball
field well, that's where Louie Lane lived. Over here,
remember, we buried Rinny, our dog.'

Everything seems so simple now.
A holiday repast, one without
judgment. Some cruel mouths
talk of foul politics, others
just eat.
