Walking up

Brighton Beach

So not wanting

To be there

Why does she have to

Drag me to these stores?

Tired

Worn out

Want to go home

Oh lord another store

Now what?

Food

More food

Oy

Must we go in?

Ok fine

Looking bored

To hell

Russian food

Everywhere

Woopty frikkity doo!!

Standing looking at

Nothing in particular

"Excuse me?"

A voice says

"Do you know what this means?"

There's a woman next to me

Holding a loaf of bread

Trying to read

Figure out

What language

It's in

Russian

Ukrainian

Belarussian

Definitely not

Chinese

We stand there

Looking at this

Wheat product

Trying to decipher

What it says

Than putting it down

We start to laugh

To talk

To discover

Similarities

Differences

Lives

She's funny

Pretty

Accomplished

I notice

Got her life together

I like this chick!

Exchange email

Talk soon

And we leave

Months go by

We use email

BBM

Facebook

To talk

To discover

Similarities

Differences

Lives

How funny it is

To bond

Over a loaf of

Bread

Was it irony,

Coincidence

Or fate?

I didn't want to

Enter that store

But I did

And made a friend

For life

We are

Bread

Bosom

Buddies

To this day

Still not knowing

What the hell

Was written on that

Loaf of bread!

Does it really matter?
