lowered expectations

i thought
the spoon was stronger
than what it was.
it bent so easily
when i used it to open
a can of paint,
to pry
open the door,
and
to unclog the clogged
sink.
but it failed
and broke in two.
i've lowered my
expectations on spoons
these days,
as i have
with so many other
things,
and people too.
