Twentysomethings

Quietly leaving
The scene of the crime
Backed up toilet

Ten gallon water
Cooler in office:
My apologies

Measurement sticker
Still on man's jeans
In elevatorbaggy

Orange ladybug
Hits my lip while walking
Bitter blessing

Witty boy
In the white shirt:
Easter egg hunt

Left turn signal
To nowhere;
Old man turns right

Stolen ream
Of paper haunts
The writer's sleep

I right-click the mouse
With a fat finger:
Eventful afternoon

Two dead squirrels
Side by side;
One must have seen it coming

Piece of turkey
Falls in butterscotch pudding:
Gravity's irony

Nap with pet bunny
Who goes down on the wrong
Side of the bed

Eye-patch contempt:
Must keep both eyes
On Showcase Showdown

Little plastic bagel
Breaks the lawn-mower
Giant toothache

Son of Mrs. Claus
Watches her fill stocking
Up above his head

The gift of my sex-
Starved brother
Is a squeaky futon

Contact buzz and charades
With feigned epilepsy
In the kitchen: Taste

Broken window
On the shortcut home:
Control alternate delete

Heat bill through roof,
Grandma on floor:
Faulty thermostat

I do not know
How the porn made it
To my inboxsurplus

Twenty slices
Of American cheese:
Cut the corners.
