Day 7 Poetry Project

Expectation lives
 on the other side
of disappointment

the rootedness
of conflict
and dispute

Subtly entering
your neighborhood
and quickly become
the most popular people
on the street

And before
you even know it
they have moved in
are couch slouching
feet firmly  poised
on the coffee table
demanding libations
and snacks

And you wonder...
just how
THAT happened
without  noticing
even one footfall
         one entrance
           one invitation

And you wonder
just what it will take
to get them to leave
this
time.
