Baby showers
The other day I was out for a walk and got caught in a baby shower. Just a little drizzle.
Do people going to baby showers wear baby shower caps if they don’t want to get their hair wet?
How did we get from baby showers to raining cats and dogs?
Stampede
A whole herd of words
Just stampeded through my mind
Flattened every idea they could find
Trail of distraction
Is all they left behind
Now, where was I?
Oh, right.
Do Not Disturb
A “Do Not Disturb” sign
Is hung on my forehead
While I feverishly work inside
Brewing potions
Crafting notions
Boiling oceans
Passing motions
Oh, it’s a wild ride
Is there enough?
There are days
When I’m on the toilet
Looking at the paper roll
And wondering
Is there enough?
To blow my nose
And wipe my hole?
