Clean
35, 30, 50 dirty dishes
Would miraculously appear
Overnight
As I reluctantly
Ventured into the
Kitchen
Tripping over
Empty boxes,
Junk mail,
Shoes,
Layers of dust
And sand
Built up
Across the floor
That I swept
The previous day
Opened containers
Of milk and juice
Butter slowly
Melting over
They layers
Of crumbs
And half eaten
Bagels, spilled
Cereal on the
Floor, dirty dishes
In the sink
25, 30, 50
Would miraculously
Appear overnight
Waiting for me
To Clean.
