Some days I feel like
Jeremiah’s little sister,
like God’s come to visit
and they’ve locked me outside
like I’ve been catching water snakes all day

Like I’ve got kool-aid and powdered sugar
all over my hand-me-down cut-offs
and as God goes to pull a quarter from my ear
I stomp on his foot through his open-toed sandal,
