Breaking The Silence MAG
Dead silence.
No voices were audible;
Only the clangs of silverware,
The clattering of plates.
Breaking the silence,
Mom and Dad argued;
Their voices rising in volume.
My brother and I
Giving each other "rolling-eye" looks,
Bored with the same conversations.
Wishing the food would disappear
So we could leave.
But it went on.
So, we laughed a little,
Sneered a bit,
Hoping they'd notice
The stupidity of their disagreement.
