Behind My “Fine”

You asked me to tell you

how I really am
and we both know that can be

such a complicated thing.
The stylish illustration I can come up with

of the way my life is really going recently
is the notes app in my phone

equal corridor chronicles of my inmost demons
and endless to- do lists,

it’s a constant memorial of both
the effects I am

and all the effects I’m not doing.
I ’m alarmed that the people I love will leave me,

but, also, I need to water-soak my shops.
I ’m sad for my future kiddies about the state of the world we ’re living in,

and my auto could really use an oil painting change.
I wish someone would tell me that it’s okay to leave this world before,

and I ’m running out of milk.
You asked me to tell you

how I really am
and because I do n’t go around revealing

the notes app in my phone,
I settled,

of course,
for “ fine. ”
