Setting The Table With The Last Of The Rubied Spoons

setting the table with the last of the rubied spoons
how could I see at first the small indigo thundercloud
near the cobweb’s chandelier

it’s the thirteenth fairy
madeline said while the prisms shook
and I thumbed through Betty Crocker's Dinner Parties:

Dealing with the Unexpected too late too late.
here’s your spumoni, dear, matilda said
to our preempting guest in gossamer
good luck with the spatula
