The dishwasher was run the night before The moon reaches high again as I empty I turn to the sink which has been filled I peel back the layers of the day as I reach The fifth day leftovers of pork and sauerkraut The soup cup I chugged in search of pie The bottle I made after enduring the tears The lime green snack bowls, unwanted The breakfast *** crusted over just as my eyes were when I made the first meal Now mixed with rings of grit and swirls of grey from the coffee filter Delicately sliced grapefruit, perfectly sized bites, I presented to the baby now lie in the drain Mist hits my face as it bounces off stainless steal Wipe the grime and release the shine

Saying Grace
The dishwasher was run the night before The moon reaches high again as I empty I turn to the sink which has been filled I peel back the layers of the day as I reach The fifth day leftovers of pork and sauerkraut The soup cup I chugged in search of pie The bottle I made after enduring the tears The lime green snack bowls, unwanted The breakfast *** crusted over just as my eyes were when I made the first meal Now mixed with rings of grit and swirls of grey from the coffee filter Delicately sliced grapefruit, perfectly sized bites, I presented to the baby now lie in the drain Mist hits my face as it bounces off stainless steal Wipe the grime and release the shine
Thank you
