collective nouns: ten front teeth are seven thebes every day of the week
homelands / husbands / playing house / strands
& strings of horses behind strangers lounging
un-belonging to Thebes of Sevens or women,
depending on how you slice matters, as a perspective
as a twisted bark of favors
sneaky is a wooden gift donkey at a garden gate
overbitten hinge with ten front teeth, grinning

One Day of the Week
One day I'll be successful.
One day I'll be creative.
One day I'll be talented.
One day I'll be gifted.
One day I'll be given
all the credit I deserve.

One day I'll be important,
but on Monday I'll be loved.
On Tuesday I'll be thanked.
On Wednesday I'll be grateful.
On Thursday I'll be blessed.
On Friday
