screaming tea kettle
rice cooker, toddlers and cats
all share the moment

family laundry
unwashed and festering
dangling online

pilfering ice cream
from my mother’s freezer
her hair in my mouth

while I feed her milk
she presses wrist watch functions
I didn’t know I had
2596
little feet patter
dinosaur roars in the crib
toddlerzilla rex
2593
watching the same shows
we watched sixty years ago
she points out dead stars
2588
empty out
my dream catcher
before she wakes
2558
toddler granddaughter
has flypaper fingers.
where’s my keys
2549
no, not unemployed
the baby hurls toys at me
I toss them back
2523
where time has been stopped
ice fortress of leftovers
my aunts fridge freezer

Labor Day
no school for kids
the horror
2508
wakes me past midnight
grandkids in my old bedroom
crying in their dreams

grandtoddler talking
to her talking toys
making fun of me
2492
trapped with the grandkids
another day of screaming
play I’ll fly away
