I do the work the way You-
Tube taught me. Mid-drill,
mid-plunge, mid-whack,
I re-thumb
my password, rewatch
my confidence clip, leave nothing
to the pros. I am saving
myself thousands. I curate
a fabulous collection of caulk
in the basement.
In the attic,
four or five
mattresses you don't need
to question. I say beautiful
for modern and state-
of-the-art for stainless steel.
I feel
the market
growl and whimper. In a low
year, I hold
the college crowd
captive without release.
