Weeks ago two fortune cookies
arrived with my stir-fry and steamed rice.
They were enclosed in those little plastic wraps.
I opened one and read my fortune
revealing how my past reflected my future.
But now one cookie remains.
It was intended for the egg roll and steamed rice
customer who also dwells in my home -
my husband.
But, that cookie is patiently
sitting on a shelf in my kitchen.
If I open it whose fortune is revealed?
Once I claimed it for myself
I would feel like a thief.
