somersaulting for the gold

there is a blinking neon light
between my rib cage.
it hangs there,
buzzing it's florescent message
all night long:
THE BOUNCE HOUSE IS OFFICIALLY OPEN

it must be a private club.
when ten o’clock hits
my basketball belly
is the babe's personal
infant athletic arena.

They go from bouncing in you to bouncing on you. Welcome to my life.

I see a trampoline in your future.

This is why you love your kids. Even though they don't remember it, you know you were literally their whole world for a while. And they had fun!
