Not Mykolas the messy one.
\nBlame the sticky berries of Grandma.
\nAfter their \u201cattack,\u201d the eater himself, looking in the mirror, had to admit: \u201cOh, yuck, POOP.\u201d<\/p>\n
And so the day spins on like a washing machine\u2019s mill.
\nAnd the vacuums hum, cloths sway in graceful arcs.
\nAnd every time, I line up the laundry to \u201cwash.\u201d
\nThen\u2014dry.
\nThen\u2014fold.
\nThen\u2014sort.
\nDuring the small breaks between tasks, I manage to sigh:
\n\u201cHow hard it is to be a mom.\u201d<\/p>\n
And then, embarrassed, I think:
\n\u201cAfter all, in our childhoods, we weren\u2019t cleaner, and we weren\u2019t less greedy for sticky berries.\u201d<\/p>\n
Only all the everyday helpers
\nwere \u201cbowls\u201d and hands that knew everything.
\nFrom memory, they appear\u2014seemingly never tired.<\/p>\n
