She laughed

Stretched out across the beige carpet of our apartment
My clumsiness always did that to her

She nods

When I tell her that I might try to become a contestant on ‘Jeopardy’
As long as they don’t ask me about chemistry
Or European cuisine

She thinks

My wallet is suffering from deposit amnesia
Although
I have never turned away any of her withdrawal requests

She smiles

When I sneak up behind her after she showers
Drawn by the scent of Ivory soap

She yells

When I drop kick my pants into the closet every morning
After a hard night at work

She cries

When she sends forth her heart
And it is returned trampled upon with a thousand muddy footprints

She asks

As I endlessly stare at my computer screen

‘why don’t you write a poem about me?’


I laugh
I nod
I think
I cry
I smile
I yell
I write

This is your poem
