(a story in Senryus) I can’t figure out why everything doesn’t happen like I want. I brush my teeth and floss regularly, I wash my roommates dishes, I am generous, I don’t run in the hallways, I do my homework. I support pizza places, Amazon - I spur the economy semi-sleepless night no worries, but tossing with no sleep - what’s with that? My health app says I slept three hours, four minutes. I’m low on toothpaste. five-thirty AM Lisa and I ran four miles on the gym treadmills Banana/ peanut butter/ cacao/ oat milk/ chia seed breakfast smoothie. I've been in love with styling dresses, layered over flared jean pants. My first look was a tulle dress over sequined jeans and tan kitten heels. The winter hook-up scene is in full swing - not for me, I’m like second base. I just lay around, in sad, unfettered, boredom - a crying shoulder for others, I’m not a skanky whore, like [censored] - try penicillin - ß??ç? Since, as you can see, I am, for all intents and purposes - perfect. I can’t figure out why everything doesn’t happen like I want. . . Webster: Unfettered: not controlled or restricted ß??ç? is NOT a word, it’s a set of Greek symbols - if you read something in them, well, that’s just coincidental, isn’t it?

You know Anais, I’m sure all the gods and goddesses in the universe ask themselves this very question at some point in time, great penning in senryu format, of course I like the coincidental one best, dark humour oozes off the page, cheers David
