Nikol

A sea of young faces, some quizzical

and some interested and some not,

I was in a room of them as I had

been invited to read to them

like a vulgar, bearded kindergarten

teacher.

To my right, you sat and it wasn't

'til later that I understood that

we were connected through mutual

friends and you were, in fact,

marrying one of them. It's

a small world after all, it's

a small world after all, it's

a small world after all.
