Random word poem

Thanks to Lisa Hase-Jackson’s prompt (and a little free time) I have a poem to post today!

Skirting the subject

Salad is the currency of assumption, an affair
we don’t bother to unpack. Disaster is a pie

we warm in the microwave, topped with trouble
and crushed dreams. Ask Sir Isaac to explain

the physics of it all, or the professor who groped
you in the rear of the science lab during a quiz.

And in honor of Earth Day, here are some of my favorite daffodils from the yard. (The name escapes me at the moment.)
