Laundry


The days crawl by
like the whole damn sky
is holding it's breath
waiting for the other shoe to drop
waiting for the big change to come
that isn't as big
from the back
as it looks now from the front
why are the longest now moments
always the bad ones
and the fine moments
of nirvana
barely long enough
to get you through having
to mow the lawn
or do the laundry?
someday I'm gonna make god answer this one
or I'll have to kick her ass
but only
if I can keep the devil too scared of me
to come get me.
