we sat together & drank
to all the absurdities this year,
all the atrocities & stupidities.
We laughed before the toast
(what else could we do,
& better than to cry),
& we laughed so much,
the confetti never landed.

Our marriage
Wasn't long
Your health failing
As it was
But we were
So very happy
And content
Soul mates
My uncle said
That kind of happiness
Comes when
You laugh
Before the toast
At the wedding
Dinner
And we did
Laugh
A lot

never meant to
embarrass the

at the too solemn
occasion
start please as you
mean to go on
begin this marriage
with joy

Toast, when we found the cat's paw

It went down rough like spices,
The news about his devices
That we were the play things:
A truth that always stings.

flickered between us
and the matriarch's sealed will
burnt a hole in the table
and the family's blood
spilled over generations

its chrome cage
warming into something
almost comforting,
a renewal of the stale.
We watched the coils glow red,
listened to the slow rise
of heat and resignation,
a familiar ritual of small failures
and quiet endurance.

She bit her lip at the sound.
We laughed before the toast rose up,
heat brushing our hands together.
Pull away she did not.
Pulse met pulse in quiet truth,
as the kitchen dimmed around us.
Something brighter stayed.

We laughed before the toast
It was on the menu
The road miraged away
A heat spanned bridge
Lunch was at the gas station
As they call it
Refuel the car and ourselves
We laughed at the usual silly things
The way it's always been
Tomorrow we will laugh before
