Because after all of these years,
-
I've forgotten how to wear my mask.
-
So now I must do things to distract daddy.
-
Like this pie.
-
When I bring it out, he'll be so excited,
-
he won't notice the devastation in my eyes.
-
Devastation?
-
Mm-hmm. It's an emotion.
-
The kind you might feel when your friend calls
-
to say your husband's lesabre was seen
-
in the parking lot of a certain motel,
-
next to his secretary's bonneville.
