sketcher sketch us

advice in a column
scrambling for a row
telling a friend
it's not to late,
ever, to eat crow.

you said you were sorry
that i ever said you looked
like liv ullman,
preferring instead, to be my
tracy ullman
(more characters? more humors?) i have
doubts that you laugh
in your current world: of cramped spaces
and a baby's nick-nacks
and snack-packs in a drawer. there
are seasons to be sure
there are reasons also
to be back home
within the familiar country of mothers.
