There’s a leak in the family room ceiling
so I bought a sewing machine, some cotton blend thread and white eyelet
to make myself a June Cleaver friend who could help me patch the roof
out of a tissue paper pattern
carefully specifying everything I wasn’t able to do
perfectly,
(mop the floors, bake the pies, separate the laundry, get my husband to stop cheating on me)
the instructions said the best thing to do was to stitch her palms together
so they could catch the rain as it slipped over my cheeks
awesome job kay great poem. xo
