Poem, Not Actually Religion, Washing Dishes


Prayers To The Unscented
October 2, 2024

in neatly shaped rows
glasses in the dishwasher
become a less tidy clean
shivered and wobbled
spray manipulated chaos

which is fine, fine
o small god of whatever
but having learned the code
it took me six washes
to get your message -

I’m so, so tired
please reuse your dishes
all this spraying
is making worship
exhausting
