EDGEWOOD AVENUE, SUNDAY MORNING

by on July 21, 2019 :: 0 comments

Eight cars in the crescent driveway.
College students, renting rooms:
Not likely.
An opulent Sunday brunch,
Hollandaise seeping through moist eggs:
Too early.
Out-of-town wedding guests,
Gathered for muffins and coffee
And, in subverse whispers,
To critique the reception:
Perhaps.
Early mourners, news just out,
Funeral arrangements
Incomplete.

editors note:

Benedict is best when eaten with observation. – mh clay
