Perfect Company 20/20 ReRemedied
It bothers me
to be bothered
It upsets my mother
every time
I write a poem
but before I was ever bothered
I remember when
my mother explained to me
what my “rug-burned” knees
meant to everyone around me
How did she know
that I would forever be
unreachable

Perfect... again
I want you to know
that I cried just enough
And then I woke up
and I went to the Market
I bought the perfect
amount of tomatoes
and I was gifted
the perfect amount of greens
to bring you back to me
You are still with me
and everyone sees you
I want you to take a step
with me
I love you so much
Hey!
It’s just you and me
slow it down
take it easy, Jacey
Life isn’t fun
It is waking up
and knowing
A good life
is making good
choices.
It still feels bad.
Everything still hurts.
Our dad is still dead.
but how proud would he be
to see us
not be
the decision
he regrets
