In tall grass glimpsed out the window briefly while coffee reheated, a black snake, then memory corrects, “hose by the raspberry bushes.” During sleep I removed my glasses didn’t quite reach the chest I heard them fall in a dream. Moved one chest a few inches didn’t see them. Moved the twin partially revealing the lamp base, cord, no glasses. A bag of shrink-wrapped summer dresses (the vacuumed air came back), a milk stool holding watch, phone, hearing aids charging, a laundry basket, antique picture, all posing in front of the twin chests must be moved somewhere else again to discover if my glasses are under the twin chests. X-ray vision would be nice.
Reheat coffee a 2nd time, grab the entire bag of chocolate crunch nuggets, return to my desk. Can you see all this? Are you laughing yet?
Laughter has no discretion; it can be found in any circumstance.
