It's been a year

[equinoccio]

Well,
you know how this works
after a few breaths
and a few raindrops
crashed
against the window
of your
overpriced apartment,
the complexity
of life is removed
like
a tag
once
glued to a new pair of jeans.

They'll come back,
the anxiety
and
the stress,
eternal companions.

But for now:
the relief
that comes with absurdity,
that comes with laughter.
