It’s a mistake
to hit your brother
on a shopping day
for Momma
holds the opener
and the spoon
and there
are only
so many
cherries
in the fruit
cocktail
and all your
“sorry”s
can’t produce
another.

Final Cleanout
You wanted to say
so much
yet didn’t
but called for
a dumpster
to toss their life
their boxes
and boxes
of this and that
their knick
knack
bric-a-brac
their photos
of strangers
shoulders aching
your hands
dust dirty
staining your soul
‘sorry
so sorry’
with tears falling
on plants just dying
to go home
with you.

My Word, the Stupidity
Did she really do that
to herself
on purpose?
Yes. Apparently so.
Wow. The stupidity
of some people
is mind-boggling.
Yes. Apparently so.
What would make her
think that’s okay?
Her? I’m sorry.
I thought we were talking
about you.
Me? Stupid?
Yes. Apparently so.
