Domestic Blues
I stared at the laundry, gazed upon the dishes, and a poem was born

Everyday things
Seem to pile
Around
And always
Stay the same.

Never stops,
Those everyday things-
Till I close my eyes

To hide...

In a wonderland full of
Maids and houseboys and
Cooks and gardeners and
People who live to serve ME-

Until eyes that betray
Expose me, pop open-

To Towering Tall
Everyday things
And no people who live
To serve ME.

Everyday things...
