It's been awhile.
Is that allowed?
A word, methinks
but probably not.
I make rules
noone else follows
so "awhile" stays
and "three words"
lives another day,
I'm slightly tipsy.
Lemonade plus bourbon
plus mean kids
being mean kids
doesn't produce much
eloquent, biting prose.
Alas, typo-ed triplets,
while cue balls
clack in protest
and middle schoolers
fight mandatory bedtime.
What a Saturday.
I cleaned, cooked.
Laundered, shopped, pruned.
Packed, washed, folded.
Paid, plated, planned.....
Momming, wifeing, womaning
at its finest.
I'd like sleep
to come end
this long day.
Before I can
regret the email
that winged away
to Costa Rica
via mi madre
to es hombre.
Are you kdding?
I failed Spanish.
But I did
write the email
to my brother
for his birthday
just to say
happy birthday and
I hope you
find happiness forever,
You can know
someone barely, really,
and still wish
their birth day
celebration to be
one of happiness.
Three words are
so much easier
to string together
than more than
three words together.
Funny, isn't it?
Now it's tomorrow.
I supposed that
releases me from
trying to find
a clever and
cohesive way to
wrap this us.
Good night, moon.
Good night, all.
