everyday i make a
‘today’s to do’s’ list

today the only thing
i’m setting out to accomplish
is forgiving myself
for thinking for a split second
that i could actually have him

it was stupid
and reckless
and something old amanda
would do


and yes— i realize
there should be no apostrophe
in “do’s” but if i don’t include it,
it looks like the spanish number
after uno
