a new bowl

when i pour
the boiling, steamy chicken
soup

with egg noodles
into my favorite pasta
bowl

from italy,
it cracks and breaks in
three pieces.

i stare
at the puddle of broth
growing
on the counter.

strangely it doesn't
upset me.

i've learned to accept
when things

are over.
and move on to a new

bowl.
