August Free Styling, #7

Soaking up the sun and
getting ripped on cheap beer
Shit, I need to restock the fridge
The baby jumps off
the diving board all on his own
even though he can't yet
pronounce the word for it
Fire up the grill
Sorry, it's propane
Make a tomato salad
We'll all feast on the deck
and I'll hose it down afterward
Quiet weekdays in the backyard
deciding what I want
to do with my life
Cut the grass
weed the flowerbeds
but watch out for the bugs
that have made them their home
Smoke another cigarette
Do I have enough to
last me through morning?
On days I don't work
I get drunk by the pool
but I swear I don't
have a problem.
