Someday I'll Read This, Laugh, and Roll My Eyes (Maybe You'll Be There Too)

Home
And things are
So much better
So much worse
Than I ever thought possible
You told me a joke I don't understand
And every time I repeat it to see if anyone else does
The punchline tastes like wormwood
(no one else gets it, either, by the way)
Still
That joke is precisely what I needed
To close this book
That has taken me more than four years to finish
I only hope I'm able to
Place it back on the shelf
Sooner
Rather than
Later
