Nov 2013
Two twin boys kick the
Water meter to their apartment

Instinctively destructive

Screeching like dying crows

Before turning on each other
Over an offence only they understand

Their mother
Dressed in the same sweatpants as yesterday

Smokes her cigarette
Eyes glued to the screen of her phone

Numbing herself with its glow
For a few selfish seconds [turn to years]
