the good and the bad

the good sister
is practical and smart.
rational,
logical.
she got out of dodge
a long time
ago, packed her bags and
headed south
to the orange groves.
the two crazy sisters,
Thelma and Louise
are small tornados of gossip
and mayhem.
they are black cats
crossing your path,
they are the ladders
you don't want to walk
under.
they are the cracks in
the sidewalk
that you don't step on.
look up into the sky,
and you'll see
them on their brooms
writing threats
as they cackle doom
and gloom.
hard to believe we
all came from the same
set of parents.
