Up In Smoke

by

You plan, you clean, you order ahead.
You invite company
You anticipate will enjoy each other.
The time arrives
Along with certain expectations.
But those hopes
Quickly go up in smoke.
The guests you were hoping to impress
Defy not just etiquette but decency too.
Apologies are whispered,
Eyes and noses of the young, diverted.
And here you sit
More alone in this full house
Than you were this morning.
