Hello in there,
it's nice to to see you today.
how did you get your hair to stand that way?
No. Really.
I want to know.
I'm truly very impressed,
And I do admire your interesting dress.
So Dear,
It's a nice day.
Is it better over there?
I mean other than your clothes and hair.
Dishes done?
Laundry away?
Any pressing engagements?
Bills paid with cash to spare, no towering rent?
A visit?
May I join you?
In your strange backwards world,
where it doesn't matter if your hair is curled.
No then?
Alright I guess.
You'll go when I walk away.
But I'm glad we took time to talk today.

Things always seem better and a little weird through the looking glass. Great poetry.
