The fresh breeze detergent at your apartment doesn’t
even smell like a fresh breeze
I know because my friend once tried to put up
a clothes line in her backyard
One of those circular ones that spin in the wind
but she didn’t dig the hole deep enough
and it just collapsed under the weight
of her wet clothes
And they fell all over the ground
scattered like popped balloons
deflated and flat,
those little helicopter things stuck in the sleeves
Disappointed that even now the real thing
can’t exist
or never really existed to begin with.
