hula hooping in precarious indoor coordinates
especially near flower vases
is perfectly acceptable
and even applauded
scarves and mumu dresses
lost-and-found too-smallish sunglasses
adorn this sun-dance, of sorts
freezer bags of clarity
ounce for ounce
are strewn about while
bottles of love light
compliment boxes of truffles
and trifles
and teeth used for smiles, for storytelling
family dinners require no blood relation
just the satisfaction
of feeding each others souls
mac and cheese and
chocolate cake
are the best therapies
these are the kinds of things
that happen
when parents
aren't present
