with tears puddling on either side
of the pulled sheet
Hard to say what’s so horrible
probably me—I was downstairs
when it slipped through the small
slots and you were asleep
What could you have done?
The crinkly teal elephant is face
down on the floor now
“It’s ok” won’t cut it
in the doorway only
a moment to realize laundry
isn’t getting done today
