Crossing the lawn in heels I wobble,
but laugh and say I'm just here to aerate the soil.
I too love layer cake with buttercream
and like you, I don't quite know what to do after it's gone.
Do you sometimes feel you skipped childhood because
all your clothes were in somber colors like olive and grey?
After a storm, tree limbs litter every street
like the products of very long division.
Perhaps the truest sentence I heard today was about putting
two unlike things next to each other with no explanation whatsoever.
