The waiter sprayed
The table behind her
With cleaning product
And even that
Seemed grand
As the foamy liquid landed
On the wooden tabletop
And sat there
In spurted form
For a moment
Before the rag
Smeared it
And in that moment
I was aware
Of the sun shining
Through the window
The smells from the kitchen
Her golden necklace
On her bare chest
And I exhaled as
It all seemed
So grand
