Summer Stupor

Joan McNerney

Milk curdled up my coffee.
Cooked macaroni covered
with fake cheese pushed
into the microwave.

A small bag of dumpster garbage
leaning beside recyclables.
Loads of laundry patiently wait.

Checking the fridge to
calculate how many days
I can avoid my hot box car
and a trip to Shop Rite.

Multiple shopping bags hang
on my doorknob. Piles of bills
junk mail lists notes gathering dust.

Languid wishes, memories of
finer times. Now reaching
to mute another newscast.
Turning off another day.
