The Tomato-coloured Couch 2:54pm
I have fallen into
the role of Doctor’s Wife
however unnaturally —
it’s taken sixteen years
since I first became attracted
to Dr Blair
The Sexiest Man In My Book
in His Office Clothes
I now lay out
along with His Oatmeal
and raisins —
lunch @ 1:00
supper @ 6:00
I wait for His Parcels
in the afternoon
and take pop to His Secretary —
She appreciates Me so
The Hawk Laundry Room 9:35am
There’s a circular label permanently stuck
to the lid of My Washing Machine
It has multiple radiating lines
to attract attention
It blasts “IMPORTANT!”
(like My Halo)
but all It says is:
“Please return your Product Registration Card
within 10 days”
The Hawk Window Seat 8:46am
I’ve picked out
My Husband’s Wednesday attire —
Dockers M made in Vietnam
pin-striped shirt
charcoal grey wool trousers
LL Bean size 34″ by 29″
He’s in the tub
& I’m in Eliza’s black negligee
ready to wash Dr Blair’s
magnificent hair
