charity gala —

the optimal temperature

to serve champagne

Haiku Dialogue

Charity events are not uncommon and a great way to raise awareness and donate to those who need the help, but how fortunate are those who can be more concerned with the temperature of a luxury, such as champagne versus real-life crisis like poverty and hunger. Of course, there’s nothing wrong with living a little and enjoying life, but the irony in this poem is a feature we have, in a way, become completely immune to.
