a christmas dinner…

christmas dinner

a holiday tradition
dining
with
my friend
signing about the menu
trying to decide
what
might be
an appropriate
restaurant christmas feast
when
a somewhat shy
and
hesitant waitress
approached our table
clearly uncertain
as to
how to deal
with
two deaf folks
so i spoke
further
confusing her
but
it
assured her
that
one of us
fit
her definition
of
normal
i gave her
my order
now the plot thickened
how
to get my friend’s order
she decided
to write a note
which said
can you read
smiling
my friend
scribed
can you write
