squid 2010 Janet Kuypers (poetry converted to prose)     Once i was sitting in the living room, i just got home from school, and I said i need to go wash my hands. so I walked upstairs, went over to the kitchen sink. mom, sitting in the living room, didn’t mention that the sink was half-full of raw squid for her dinner. I shriek. mom laughs. “are their beady little eyes looking up at you?” she asked. the little devil. i’m upstairs, in the kitchen, shrieking, and she’s laughing.     it is kind of funny, looking back. Also look for thie writing in the poetry section of the Janet Kuypers poetry vaults, to see this writing with different line breaks. Copyright © 2010 Janet Kuypers. All rights reserved.
