Red Room Where the Writers Are

When writing thank you notes for gifts, is it better to be honest or gracious?

THANK YOU NOTE

I wanted small pierced earrings (gold),

You gave me slippers (gray).

Snap your fingers to it. Jump rope to it. Chant it as you jog along.

Why is it that people would usually yearn for something that they think they need? Why is it that people think that finding what’s lacking would make them complete?

The long silence suddenly burst

she slowly disappears
into her own wistful vapors

gravity flickers and fades
she flutters
her vision sways
she s t r a y s
quietly

This keeps happening without my permission;
