eggs
some days
I just pretend
I'm pippi longstocking
and I can do
anything-
but most days
I just crack the egg
into the bowl
and sigh
as I
stir.
I wish I
could just
crack them
over my head
with a smile,
meanwhile the horse in the house
isn't going to work out
so I suppose a hamster
will do.

I like very much how you take what could very easily be "real" and add a sprinkle of humor.
