Sunday's chore
A finger too fat for the ring
holds on to the gold, untarnished.
The cars get waxed, grass cut,
paving slabs scrubbed. A rebirth

Many times the house is cleaned
dusted, bleached and moped.
A thickening veneer hardens
the surface, only dreams can weave
between the could have been
that duty stops, and stays
but unpainted wood still rots.
