stuck under the bed

i vacuumed under my bed today / cleaned up all the dirty spots / in my mind / knicknacks forgotten for so long / they perched on piles of dust bunnies / suburban worries on neglected lawns / and as i scrubbed and scrubbed / scouring the blade against the floor / i looked out my window and up in the sky / saw a flock of pigs oinking / cruising on by

how could i truly / truly goodbye / is that ever truly / truly true?
