and the day goes

like this and like that.
It rains on balancing scales, and they tip
where they do,
end of story.
The big problem is
everything.
Honestly, both sides
are just as heavy.

I accidentally burned my fingerprint
crisp off.
I'm using playwriting as catharsis now,
like gum stuck to my shoe
and blood
and whiskey
in coffee mugs.

I feel like I'm on the verge of losing everything.
