Today Joseph screamed
In line at the Fred Meyers
All four in tow. Why?
We get to the van
Kids are buckled in, but wait--
Where is my smart phone?
I release the hounds
Unfettered, unstrollered, wild
We dash through the lot...
Cashier Dylan says
"No phone here, try back later"
I say "Ha ha ha"
Holding baby M,
Chasing Joseph, scolding girls
I'm sure I look nuts
Herd cats back to van
Defying death and logic
In the busy lot
There at cart return
My smart phone is safe and sound
I grabbed it, of course
This is exactly
why I do not leave the house
anymore, okay?
