Sitting at the Wake


It was all a big misunderstanding--
as they say

mischief
misleading

Or worse yet--
mismatched

Mismanagement of expectation

The magnificence of a mistake embedded in a mirage--
ahead--
taunting
arrogant
smug

A missed stake---
a laid claim over an empty plot

I had chalked it up to a misinterpretation
and a mishandling of it all

The puddle had crept on me--
a new and unexpected companion that vanished upon my arrival
