Decisions and Eyebrows.

There was a big decision to make,
and I didn't know the answer
so I plucked my eyebrows instead -
defer payment till next month.

Possibly Solitude

You never really know,
when you're sitting on the porch
beer in hand,
four friends in front of your face laughing like something was funny,
whether they're really there
or off arguing with their boss
fixing their car
kissing their girlfriend
stressing about bills
like you are.

At least you can all pretend
you're not alone.

Sleepless, not in Seattle.

If only I could fall asleep sooner
I wouldn't have such deep
thoughts, pondering the meanings
of life and such,
Like I'm the most interesting girl
I've ever met. But
I'm really just trying to work out life
as if it's not one of those books where you make one wrong move
and after you turn to page fifteen
to find out
what the beloved heroine does,
She dies.
How arrogant of her.
