The woman obviously did not want to go home
I watch her come in
with two empty basket
lugging both of them
as if they were caskets.

With two empty baskets
full of unnamed sins
she folds her clean blankets
and then lays them in..

Lugging both of them
she carries the baskets
out and comes back in
with more of her caskets.

As if, they were caskets
she put dry clothes in
three more plastic baskets,
leaves with a sad grin.
