I cook French onion soup
losing count of how many onions I put in
eating croutons as I go along
drinking wine as I go along
you ask me to turn the fan up
so I open a window too
the garlic isn’t thin enough
we have no gruyere
but if you don’t tell the French
I used smoked cheddar
I won’t either
we eat the soup over puzzle pieces
we’ve had strewn on the table for days
and try not to spill
