Unrequested
Bread, cheese, ceviche, olives
tantalizing but at what cost and what rules
thrown in the trash if not eaten as we would do in
America, the "land of the free and the brave"
we ate and it was good
in this land of Lisbon, and we ate more
after pointing to unknown words like peixe
and drinking wine and we paid our bill
scribbled on a pad by a man who barked
"no English" but he did
I knew it and I smiled at him.
