I was never very good
at practical jokes.
Especially, doorbell
ditch.
***
I just couldn’t nail it.
***
I’d ring the bell,
and when the door
opened,
there I would be.
***
Standing there.
***
Snickering into my hand.

Like, some kind of
no-good-at-doorbell-ditch-kid.
True story. Last night, my doorbell rang one time. I peered out the window. No one there. Now I know it wasn’t you.
