She can’t stand her. He’s
her ex, so don’t include them.
Can’t we go alone?

Prom date
Deciding who to
take like negotiating
Mideast peace treaty.
Prom dress
In it she was arm
candy, someone that turned heads
unexpectedly.
Study hall
The play was about
them. His unrequited love
her indifference.
Random acts of afterschool kindness
M came home and washed
all the dishes in the sink
trying to be nice.
Online life on the line
He sent sensitive
documents to a stranger
thinking it was me.
May day
When’s the right time to
wash winter blankets? Last night
I saw snowflakes fall.
Rainy days
Earthworms emerge, splayed
across sidewalks, tender skin
snags on rough concrete.
Dog tired
Our longer springtime
walks knock him out. There he lies
fat happy fur child.
Long walk in sunshine
Dog is lagging yet
clear skies pale green leaves urge me
to linger longer.
