sweat.

*fork over.
why is it
that within 5 seconds and 2 steps
when carrying a plate with a fork on it
that the fork somehow slams to the ground
even when i’m focused, keeping the plate level, moving at a normal pace
is it math? science? is my body always a just a bit a-kilter?
—
*in reading about what dropping a fork means, all i that i can find are superstitions.
after looking at superstitions from around the globe, from a variety of cultures, both historical and current
many disagree about what will happen when you drop a fork
but they seem to be narrowed down to three major things that will happen soon:
good news, bad news, or love.
this explains a lot of my life.,
but why the fork falls remains a mystery.

morning detail.
when you start the day
by adding the soup broth instead of the almond milk
into your morning coffee
you know that your spring break is truly over.

that moment when you see your pilot
looking a bit world weary
after taking a spin
on the last chance

before boarding the plane.

scam likely.
who is scam likely?
an old friend from elementary school?
someone i went to camp with?
an indy band?
someone i met at a carnival?
sam likely’s twin?
i’m not sure, but scam calls me often
he/she must feel rejected
as i never take their call.

poles apart.
yep, not me.

just wondering why my fitness app
is willing to measure
pole dancing but not pole vaulting
both involve strength and flying.

“i have tennis shoes with little rhinestones that I slip on if I exercise.
but I always wear heels, even around the house.

i can’t reach my kitchen cabinets.”
