She in her house

 


She in her house



converses a lot:

asks questions, answers;

debates, argues;

always wins

an argument.


Decor spare;

has a tidy mind,

all matters carved to her liking,

stored pat;

she keeps a tidy house.


Comes and goes from her door

with the working hours;

has some friends,

keeps them separate;

they disappear eventually.



She might be seen

passing a window,

then passing another;

always seems she’s looking

for something.


Early morning

sun in the front window,

late evening round the back;

she in her house:

a stone in a box.
