CASTING OF THE WORST, STUPIDEST MOVIE EVER

BOY: Mickey to be played by Uncle Mark’s little brother,

my father,

Mikey.

GIRL: Jesse to be played by the younger sister of a girl

Uncle Mark used to date,

Shari,

my mother.

UNCLE MARK PULLED ME IN

for a hug,

but how you

hug what’s haunting you?

AND YOU KNOW

it’s weird to know

a person you don’t know

and at the same time

not know

a person you know,

you know?

09:08:25 a.m.

WHY YOU HERE?

I asked Uncle Mark,

taking my turn,

my time,

looking him up

and down.

Sadness

split his face

like cold breeze

on chapped lip

after attempting

to smile.

I guess he expected me

to be excited to see him.

And I was, sorta,

but still.
