Self-Help

Taking a leaf from a new book
he will clean out his closets
and simplify his life –
take charge of his clutter 
and follow his bliss –
birth the new him
and embrace the old him –

he will end up pooled 
in the center of his bedroom floor
yet again,

clutching 
her old T-shirt

and weeping into
the definition
of his bliss.
