At The Food Court Poem by RIC BASTASA

At The Food Court

Rating: 5.0


a woman carries a very fat baby
white skinned, and sleepy on her tummy
both hands holding
the baby's feet clinging on her hips
like a vine

you look at them both
and you accuse me that i must be envious.

i did not bother looking. i know i will not like the
kind of scene.

a madonna inside this crowded foodcourt.
now sip your soup
i am munching this dumpling.
