Hey Mom

Where’s my sweater?
Where’s my shoe?
Hey Mom, where’s
that shirt I like, you know,
the one.
Unzip me.
Wipe me.
Drive me.
Buy me.

Where’s the glue?
Where’s my crayons?
Do we have any bleach?
Why?
For the Experiment.

I don’t want to.
You can’t make me.
You don’t understand.
I’m in my room.
(Slam)

Why are we going?
Do we have to?
I locked the screen door
from the inside, now you have
to unscrew the hinges to
get into the house.

I threw up.
I peed the bed.
This is bleeding.
There’s so much snot
on my sleeve. Because
I was wiping my nose
with it.

I love you.
You’re funny.
I know you have
my nose.
Thanks for the jeans.
Thanks for the genes.
Thanks.

Happy Mother's Day, all you Mothers.
