Question

In a second

if leaves my clumsy fingers

and crashes to the floor.

You turn at the sound

to find shards of the little red bowl

scattered across the tile.

I look up from the remains

and watch sadness seep

into your face.

And then I realize:

to me it was the whipped cream bowl,

to you it was a bowl of memories,

a tie to your childhood, your children,

your own mother.

I look down at the pieces

of a life

lying in front of me.

Then I turn

to get

the broom.

-Carl Johnson
