The Invitation
“You are invited to a party at our house, Saturday at 7.
Please bring a dish to share and what you want to drink.”

Pot Luck?
What the F—?
If I’m to bring a dish to share and also what I drink,
just who’s throwing the party? It sounds like me, I think.
If I’m going to cook a dish and also buy the wine,
I think I’ll just stay home instead, where all of it is mine!
The purpose for a party is for entertaining friends—
Not the other way around. This said, my poem ends!
