That’s another story timing the pace to match the waste of time She makes a box of remembered sounds catapulting across the room And stores them in measured rows of lines of time with tentacles reaching the floor Its not the seemingly nonsense that drives her to beserk-dom but the seemingly sense it all makes Take that and that she says and jousts her thoughts into the paper lid that forms the tray of her mind Pulling it out like drawers in the mortuary the morgue the home of the funeral director and associates Examining it like the rock collection of her youth the butterfly cases of the PhD the recipes snipped clipped But that’s another story This story speaks of wasted time lounging on chairs and couches in front of firelight and TV ions The dryer rocks the clothes dry the washer beats it clean knocking the detergent to the floor It needs to be balanced that’s all but how how to balanced she’s not the tools The fridge ice frozen in the line and the disposal as well stopped in time no action from either all quiet She’ll do it later get the guy who fixes things to come by and not fix it but says next time And fixes something not broke and charges her anyway and cleans the gutters but sweeps the yard instead Its this nonsense that makes the most sense padding around in hospital socks non slip to slip into his arms What do you think a movie and dinner or just the *** you know the blood won't flow to both And she hops on and hears her stomach growl it’s a trade he’ll do it next time the movie she means The dinner ingredients dry up in the frozen fridge and she muscles the dryer to clean the vent She’ll get the guy to come fix it but he doesn’t do appliances so he’ll fix something else that’s not broken And says I wont charge you as much this time I’ll bring the brush to clean out the dryer so it can rock the clothes But that’s the story the other story of her tender soft spots making memories in boxes pulled out like drawers Her drawers on the floor as he rocks her like clothes in the dryer around and around up and down tumbled and dried Moist to the fingertips her memories linger scent upon scent crouching to see why the fridge is frozen Under the peas and the tiny ice tray frozen in dinosaur shapes are piles of ice in bags awaiting the storm Take it all out take it all to the counter and you tube the answer to the quest but end up couched crouching Not seeing what the camera shows so she’ll call the guy and he’ll help her put the peas back and not charge at all This time
