Haikus for Moms Who Might Be Gettin’ Real Sick of Everyone’s Shit.

I have four kids and a dog. Here are some haikus.

Tako has dog toys

He always chews the girls’ toys

He shit a Shopkin

Who took my charger

Which one of you kids have it

Goddammit you thieves

You just brushed your teeth

Don’t eat Swedish Fish right now

Fuck it. Whatever

I am indisposed

Look. There’s no toilet paper

What the fuck you guys

You tell me you’re bored

I am washing the dishes

I wish I was bored

Why does my daughter

Insist on scratching her butt

While she eats dinner

I often wonder

If Disappointment Island

Is really a place
