I've written troubles I've penned my strife, In echoing doubles That mark my life. I’ve brewed catastrophes And spilled the morn, Watched dawn dissolve As patience is worn. I’ve lost my socks To the void profound, Yet laughter emerges Where chaos is found. I’ve stumbled at thresholds Of mundane despair, And found absurd joy Lurking quietly there.

Where Laughter Lurks
I poured my coffee and it hit the floor, No point in cursing, I have done it before. The cat just stared as if to say, “Some things are spilled and must stay that way.” The toast burned black, the laundry still remained, I shrugged — no use in being quite so pained. Small mischiefs pile, yet one survives, And life continues in these quiet lives. I’ve watched the chaos settle into place, And learned that patience wins the smallest race. Yet still, I find with all that I have done: The dog got the toast and the cat ate my bun.
