Sarah’s not so sure what to do about Grandma
whether she should invite her to the wedding or not.
Grandma thinks if Sarah prays enough
the gay will go away,
but the wedding’s
probably gonna put the lie to that
once and for all.

Sarah wonders if Grandma would want an invite.
Sarah wonders if Grandma would go.
Sarah wonders if Grandma knows who Sarah really is
or even wants to.

Sarah knows that Grandma had been fighting so long
against people like her
like Sarah
to stop them from even being
that it must be hard to face her.
Sarah certainly knows what that’s like.

She’s heard Grandma say
that people should just live and let live
and thinks that’s really good advice
and wishes Grandma knew to take it
forty five years ago
back during the wars.

Now
Sarah’s not so sure what to do about Grandma
but thinks about living and let live
and thinks that’s about all right.
