let's jump out of a plane

let's go jump
out of a plane, she says to me,
as I lie in bed
reading the paper.
we need to do something
fun,
something different,
we need to shake things up
a little.
I look over the top
of the paper,
and watch her dance
on the floor in her pajamas.
she stretches her
arms out and spins in a
circle,
as if flying.
I thought we
were going to weed
the yard today, I tell her.

i was really looking

forward to it.
