I almost forgot to tell you:

the milk has gone sour
the bread is
stale
the cat pissed
in the coffee pot
there’s dog shit
in the bedroom
the living room
and there’s
cat litter
all over the clean
folded laundry
the internet
keeps going out
you got a call
from a
creditor
concerning
your X
then
the power
went on
and off
three times
then
stayed off
there’s no
ice cream
for the ice
cream cones
there’s nothing
to eat
for dinner
the light sockets
are empty
in the pantry
and the back hall
I look the last
of your
pain medication
when I got
stung by
a yellow jacket
and the cable
bill is overdue
hope your
day was
great J
love EM
