A Stable Upbringing

by Holly McCamant

The only stable thing in this house

Is the couch

We got you for Mother’s Day. I was

So excited to surprise you. So ready to

See a glimpse of joy. And you

Proudly told us you dreamt

Of setting fire. To it

You said – it was a dream. But

We knew you dreamt it with your

Eyes wide open. But when

A new couch was needed

You wanted one that was exactly the same.

You chose it.

So it was perfect
