a wedding goes by

for a moment,
with traffic stalled due to a wedding,
i see
the bride
and groom
leaving the church,
waving
to well wishers
in a flurry of rice.
the bride in
a virginal white dress, 
the groom
in the best
suit he'll ever
own,
measured twice.
cans tied to the bumper
of the long
black car, and on
the side is written
in soap, halleluiah,
grand opening
tonight.
