Laughing Matter
My landlady said she can’t take rent from me anymore.
She is giving me a month
to fold my life into boxes
and look for another room
.
I have heard from my neighbors’ mouths before:
“He should pack and go.”
It breaks my heart
into a million pieces,
and I hope
it is only my mind playing tricks on me.
Because this
is not a laughing matter.
This is far away
From a laughing matter.
