working on a puzzle at the bottom of the stairs.

long silver strands, sleepy, floating to the floor
Her horn rimmed glasses read the book
next to her bed

for boredom overtook her when

Heaves, and leans her heavy bosom
On the pitchfork, dangerously bending
The prongs over the swollen tomatoes.
Trying not to stare at the weary body
Enlarged like a blimp, obediently,
The child’s eyes avert...

standard American,
perfectly Midwestern,
nothing out of the ordinary.

on the lines around your smile,
on your salt and...

and you both go blind.
