An argument for not putting things tidily away in cupboards and drawers.






Son: Have you seen the clamp?
Me: You mean the thing that holds things together?
Son (rolls his eyes): Yes, the metal thing, the bar clamp. Two jaws that screw together. (Holds up hands to demonstrate.)
Me: I know I’ve seen it somewhere…
Son: I used it last winter. There are a hundred places where it could be in the garage.
Me: Have you checked the laundry room? On top of the dryer?
Clomp, clomp, clomp down the stairs.
Son: It’s here.

 Hard to believe, but I've been bored with blogging, using my writing time for poetry instead. While most of my publications are in print, I've a few online, including one in which the title's layout accuses me of kidnapping.
