Soon

~ Harlan Didrickson 

Distracted like 
a dog 
hearing engines
and wondering 
if Bobby’s
finally home 
like a
student looking 
one way 
then another 
for the 
postman knowing 
the letter 
is near
like a 
lover listening 
to the 
shower curtains 
swoosh and 
hairbrush knowing 
that deliciousness 
is nigh
