tenderness
i dont
i can't even what
is that word. baby
fat melting into roased flesh
butter on asparagus
siam thai's panang chicken slices
dealing with feelings here dealing with harsh
realities. i don't like this kid.
i was creulla NO the wicked step mother
with claws and teeth out
earlier after crappy interactions by his lordship
with the household staff. nicely asked for milk
on his cearal then stated his thirst. several times
with the housemaid politely commiserating
each time but not serving as nothing
was asked of her, politely or otherwise
his lordship, not getting the hint
deduced drink would not be forthcoming so
drank the milk from the dregs of his cereal
then left the table, entetainment in hand.
his pappa reminded him to clear his bowl
as the housemaid was washing the dishes
and would include his but he answered
nonchalantly, i am gonna do..but was
interrupted by the lady of the house emerging
from the handmaid's face yelling BOY
YOU WILL come here instantly and pick
up your plates.
it;s a bowl her replied, looking up from his tablet
to see the face of doom aimed directly
at his eyes.
do NOT TALK BACK TO ME
you little asshole, i am tired to FUCKING
death of your smartass , know better than
royal fucking shit get that mutherfucking DISH
off the table and wash it yourself!
i do not like this kid.
and maybe he needs some takedown
in his life but honestly i dont want to be that guy,
***
waiting for the call from my daughter
on the birth of her fourth child
or impending. i'm to mind the others
while she's birthing. interestingly enough
she's not found out the gender. i'm with her
on surprises. they can be joyful.

I'm bouncing off your words, spinning, thinking I catch a glimpse of the underneath, but don't trust my ability to see. I should though, cause when I think maybe I don't get subtext, it often turns out I do. But I'm kind of a lazy reader, and don't stretch to understand. I must have some intuitive sense that I wouldn't be cut out for raising a child. But then, maybe that means I should, like the guy who doesn't want to be the president of the universe is really the perfect candidate. Except probably no, I think my intuition is right. I think I would flip on a dime from laissez-faire to the point of neglect, to impatient authoritarian, and back and forth.
