Made A Peanut Butter And Jelly Sandwich

May 27, 2020

In My Mother's Lap

pandemic poetry

Made a peanut butter and jelly sandwich
but forgot the jelly
wore out my phone
so all the people can hear
is a garbled-y voice.
So eager for communication
dropped phone in sink water
Now I’m holding onto a sick phone
for carrying my conversations.
What happens if phone dies
like the world is dying around me
and in me?
