Here comes that pretty, Swedish lady again.
I see her on the road most mornings.
She only tells me hello when she’s passing.
And I only say hi to her in response.
How I want her to say something else.
Out of bed, up for the day,
Greeting my own reali”tay”
Who knows what will happen today in the real world of Arabella?
Will I say yes to the dress in Nordstrom or from the toddler get her tiara?
I greet the day begrudgingly. The sunlight pools in my eyes like tears. It streams down my face and no matter how much I rub it does not come off.
