sick of men destroying shit

that carbon-black cookie sheet
is (was) a wilton nonstick
(obviously) ruined by carelessness
i’d get another but
i just don’t trust you
not to roast chicken on the new one
(that is what pyrex is for)
it’s like when parents say
we’ll get nicer stuff
when the kids are a little older
but you’re an adult
with a vested interest
in immaturity
anyway
that’s what i’m thinking about
while i’m cleaning the kitchen
& waiting for the mushrooms to hit
