Clothes in the washer
Still
The fish in his little tank
Still
I think
It’s hard to tell through the cloudy brown water
Especially with the tank obscured by the dirty dishes piled in front of
it
The clean ones in the dish washer
Still
The kids upstairs screaming at each other
Still
The cat rubbing up against my legs and meowing
Plaintively
Still
Breakfast cereal and lunch dishes on the table
Still
The newspaper out by the sidewalk
In its little yellow plastic bag
Still
Dinner unmade
Still
The stain in the carpet
The result of standing on a dry eraser board eraser and
Grinding it in
There
Still
Me
In t-shirt and jeans
In the middle of the kitchen
Eyes closed
Quiet
Still
