pennies are pointless

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
