ninestars

sky turns light grey

leaves scattered all astray

flannels on and hoods up

pumpkin flavors fill my cup

sound of raindrops pitter patter

autumn air is all that matters

wonder what it feels like

to be the best

can only dream of

laughing at my mistakes

the way she does

at her own

knowing she’s still

number one

makes it look

effortless at fifty

i’m aware of what

feels like an

unbreakable addiction,

but i try

and i try

and i try

as i ironically agree

with every instagram reel

saying phones

are ruining this world
