Anton's Proud (Orleans LXIII '91)

Anton's proud of his recipe
for a pasta dish
made with chicken cutlets, broccoli,
melted cheese, little garlic powder
and ziti

Anton's proud that he appreciates
the beauty of a fog rolling in,
across a turf farm as the sun
burns orange incandescent

Anton's proud that he's read
Ulysses by James Joyce

Anton's proud of his little sister
who just got elected to student council

Anton's proud to laugh, and
says we should all kiss the ground
every time we wake up.

He says it's the greatest miracle ever.
