A Birthday Party Poem by jan oskar hansen
A Birthday Party
Birthday
In the doorway of
a restaurant
music plays behind me,
dancers move to
a Finnish tango.
Glitter on the ceiling,
happy faces,
a few drinks more and
wrong words uttered,
steel blades glint in
the knuckled hands of my
dysfunctional relatives.
