Brunch At Work

By Maggie Lamont

21st Century


Two charred tomatoes,
scrambled eggs & Irish Bacon
I tear at the spiced pork with my teeth
Coffee and Icewater
Lifting a huge pot full of potatoes
Hymie asks me if I'm jewish
Andy turns up the volume of his songs
The sound of the knife hitting the board
