cheap thrills when you are old
looking out the bedroom window
at the seventy-five-year-old widow
sunbathing on her back porch...
cheap thrills when the cat lays in
your lap and starts to make bread
while you are sleeping soundly...
cheap thrills when the washing
machine is vibrating and you are
taking your time trying to fix it...
cheap thrills when you decide to
answer the door in your underwear
to tell the Jehovah's witness that
you are not interested in prayers...
cheap thrills when the adult movie
you are watching turns out to be
the cartoon you are watching
with your grandchildren, since
you had agreed to babysit them.
