the tyranny of twins
i cut his food into pieces
while he juggled first one
baby, then the other,
passing them back and forth
to mom and a nearby friend.
i sipped my wine and savored
every bite of my dinner,
noticing when his plate was empty
i filled it again, cutting
his food into bite size
pieces which he could
eat with one hand, or
if needed, as finger food.

babies rob you of dignity.
