		i'll wait till 3pm then wrap it myself It's 11pm I'm surrounded by balloons the silence of your sleeping child the present you bought sits unwrapped I've iced a yellow cake sprinkled an orange starburst too tired for complexities she won't notice more interested in wrapping paper & bows pastries have been rolled folded rolled & filled a bottle of lindauer waits in the fridge my parents are coming a friend may call I wonder if you'll turn up I'm thinking up excuses for you if you don't Carole Nelson Phillips One Voice: the poetry of Carole Nelson Phillips
