there are three types of bread in the house
stored in the freezer and fridge
because here we buy in bulk
and save it for a rainy day
the first is my father's and it is what you'd call
normal, purchased in the grocery store
next to the deli, where all the other breads
are stocked for the mass population
to purchase once a week
but we buy three loaves a month
and nobody seems to care
the second is my mother's and it's what you'd call
healthy, purchased in a specialty store
which she has to go to on delivery day
because they sell out so quickly you won't get it
two days later, unless you order it special
and people look at you weird
when you say what's in it
the third is mine and it is what you'd call
difficult, ingredients over multiple sections of the store
because i don't like bought bread,
with its extra hard crust or 'bad' ingredients
that i really shouldn't eat if i know what's good for me
i take the time to make it and people praise
how much effort i put into food
when i wish i could tell them why
there are three types of people in this house
