cake and granite
Both are once in a lifetime events
which happen to fall on the same day.
To be surrounded by grief or joy
pay respects to the past
or raise a toast to the future.
For certain, I'll remember the first of September
in a different way.
Whatever the decision
there're still hundreds of miles of black ribbon
between cake and granite-happiness and sorrow.
