really didn’t think anything of
carrying a pinata head in my passenger seat
to take to a friend’s birthday celebration
until
parking and grabbing a gift out of my car
the person in the car next to me
gave me the oddest look
after seeing my pinata head just sitting there
(a pinata true crime scene?)
i realize
this is probably not something that most people do
but to me
this is just a part of a celebration
and i do.

helped my daughter
to pull a dollhouse kit down from the store shelf above
quite surprised to find
how heavy it actually was
just before it crowned me
more surprised than anything
all was well
but as we picked it up
with an alarmed store employee
i happened to notice
a little sticker on the underside that said
‘heavy’
too little, too late. too heavy.
