the disparity
between talk talked and walk walked
has always
bothered me
the news headlines spoon fed me
could be an entire Joy Williams story
but in the context of fiction it’d be ok
to feel slightly off in a different way
whoever packed the plastic family
gave me two grandpas and no grandma
packed not by weight not by volume
but by the number of family members
