Fabric softener

We could all really use some

But, like, for the heart

Jiggly gelatin

Squishy, silly dessert thing

Hello, Jello cup

Undue suffering

From something so very small

Bye bye, kidney stone

I am electric

My thick new hair stands on end

Under the full moon

I do not believe

In ghosts, spirits, and phantoms

Yet you still haunt me

A chill up my rear
A dry seat indoors beside
A rainy window

Howling winds we share

Earth lungs on a shaky breath

How many more are there

A bead of sweat runs

Down a shaft of ice and drips

Far below its home

“Tock, tock” repeating

What creature tocks in my wall

On this chilly night

A frigid wind howls

‘Round the smelly plastic bag

I take out the trash
