Hey, abrupt. (Also, some weird math.)

In my other life, summer’s a superhero:
here in a moment and larger than life.
274 days spent waiting for
7,862,400 glorified moments of chalk-covered sidewalks,
red-checked picnic blankets, and
clouds of blue barbecue-smoke
that stretch and disappear across bluer skies.
39 weeks for
2,184 hours of asphalt-stained toes, and
iced-tea kisses, and
sunlight

I like it. A lot.

It bothers me in some spots, and I couldn't decide whether I liked it or not, but I got sick of looking at it, so I said, 'SCREW IT.' Because usually when I post something it feels so final that my brain skips ahead and finds a thousand mistakes, and fills in exactly how I should've done things instead. I was hoping maybe that'd happen, and I could make changes that would make me like it?

Apparently not. lol.

THIS IS WHY I DON'T DO "POETRY", BECCA. IT'S BAD NEWS.

[The end. I just needed to get that out. Thanks for lending your comment so I could vent in a reply. :D]
