Crooked

 There is a painting on my wall

That is a little crooked

Its been like that for a while. 

But every time I look at it, 

or should I say every time I’ve looked...

What is the opposite of a smile? 

A frown is too short term, and also too long

I’m deflecting, the painting is crooked.

It has been for a long time. 

Change it, Ill say, I need a hammer

I’ll say, It kind of works like it is

I’ll say.

But it still stays crooked, it still stays off kilter

Not sure if it doesn’t feel right to straighten it,

Or if I’m happy enough to let it be. 

There is a wall behind my painting

And its looking a little crooked
