a sugar bowl on the table.
butter
in a porcelain dish,
salt and pepper shakers,
both silver.
we had dishes
and cutlery, though
many bent.
we had a linen tablecloth.
there was a clock on
the wall
that ticked,
a television in the corner.
a couch
some chairs
with which to sit.
there was a glow in the dark
statue of Jesus
on the dresser.
from a distance we seemed
like a normal
family.
