Busted Eggs
Spilled milk
Flour on the wall
Sugar on the floor
A forgotten order
Crack!
Another knot
A wooden spoon
An upset mother
You’d think
He’d remember
To wash
A little faster
Crack!
Menu’s on the door
Bowl on the floor
Bent ladle
The pot has a dent
She asked for a fork
Ten minutes ago
This boy of hers
With his head
In the clouds
Crack!
Bringing him
Back to Earth
Just long enough
For him to
Remember
What his job
For the day is
And to wash
His hands
More often
