You’re probably right.
In and of itself
the positioning of the toiler paper
is not a big deal.
We have larger issues to address between us,
perhaps, but
this, still,
is important.

I know it is your name on the lease
and I’ve only been here a few months
but we all have rights here
don’t we?
At some point
you need to let me have some drawers
and wall hangings
and maybe sometimes
unspool the paper in a way that makes sense
to god and man.

I didn’t mean “man” that way.
I meant humanity
which – yes – does have a “man” in it too
but
can we stay on track here?
If we’re together
if we’re making a go of this
maybe I can shit my way
at least a little?

And maybe
if it’s OK
we can take my underwear out of storage, too?
Just some things to discuss
if you ever schedule
another House Meeting.
