Big or Small
Always seem to be questioning my own beliefs
Step onto a puddle
Your sock remains damp
Until the dryer/washer has to deal with it in a cycle
Period
The dryer/washer always has to deal with your mess
From the residue of your ex to failed cooking experiments that
Gordon Ramsay wouldn’t even want the sight of
The least you could do is acknowledge its pronouns
If the lights were to go out
You’d definitely learn what it means to throw out the kitchen sink with the bathwater
Always seem to be stepping over my ownfeet
But the shoe store doesn’t offer pairs anymore
The shoe store’s an awful dealer
Has me hooked on Afterpay and the credit god known as Klarna
[Greek mythology yet to be updated]
I’m always buying something
to clean up my own image
Like a smudge on a magazine
It enhances more than it takes away
Blow the dust off your hand-me-downs
Your true size reveals itself when you have to slide into
other people’s shoes
We’re all floating on a circle
Passing the torch to feed an overfed god that wants the Sun to explode anyway
Stumbling out of a vacuum
Getting sucked into the minutiae of decisions and mistakes that we made or shouldn’t have happened
Like pancakes and steak
What we get served in this life won’t always make sense
Certainly can’t refer it back to the Bible
None of us ever really grow up
We’re all janitors in someone else’s luxury rental building
We never stop having messes to clean
We just learn how to cope
