One too Many


The walls have cracks
and dustballs drift across the floor like sailboats
on a glassy lake
But there is life here
In a pot full of simmering promise
Boiling over on the stove
Slippers left peering out from under a sloppy bed skirt
Still warm
Some quiet groans and a whimper
And I feel most unwelcome
