for a friend:
rowhouse beautiful
and your husband of years
yet thinking of him
and your heart gets a stir
lifeplan like railtracks
christmas time near
with your perfect small family
but his voice in your ears
all this studying in the evenings
to further your career
still craving that lunchbreak
do your body fluids smear?
your delightful little son
with his father’s set of ears
what makes you so upset
are your innermost fears
mostly you’re quite reasonable
but you can’t help to hear
the calling of your soul
that makes life so dear
