how will I ever forget now that there are 7 glasses in the cabinet
there are 7 glasses in the cabinet
there used to be 8 and now there are
7 glasses in the
cabinet
I turned off the light in the bathroom and my
elbow hit the doorframe and I can
see it in the air
my
elbow hit the doorframe and the muscles in my fingers released like an arcade claw machine I can
see it in the air
7 glasses in the cabinet
I thought about the hardwood and pictured
in the air I pictured that it might bounce off the hardwood I can
see it in the air on the
hardwood bouncing off the hardwood in
thousands of pieces like a messy kind of crash
so
fast I could almost just
see it in the air again just
pick it up from bouncing off the hardwood almost
like it didn't happen like there are still 8
glasses in the cabinet and maybe if I
blink again instead of thousands of shards on the kitchen floor
there will be
8 glasses in the cabinet

I dropped a water glass at 8pm and couldn’t shut up about it now it’s 1am and I have to wake up for work in the morning
