earlier today,
while painting a white wall whiter,
my father told me that silk worms live only in mulberry trees,
i told him that i couldn't believe it took me 25 years to hear this for the first time

later,
i figured i could afford to buy my favourite vodka,
the one with a bison on the label
and a blade of grass inside

just now,
my father rang
and told me it's going to rain tomorrow
so we're not going to work

now,
i ask him if he thinks time grows like a mulberry tree or like grass
he asks me if i'm drunk
i say yes

he laughs
ha ha ha.
