We all get those off days
When our shine hangs crooked
If it shines at all

My brother tells me today
He’s getting a strange vibe off me
“Strange, in what way?
As in turmoil?”
(lol when am I not in turmoil?)
Yes

“No, no turmoil here.
Enjoying my new eyesight,
while waiting for a weed whacker,
ordered from Amazon,
with three extra spools of wire.
My backyard looks like a jungle.”

Mom used to do that to me
Reading me the wrong way
As I said, when am I not in turmoil?
When aren’t we all?
