I Stay at Home - Contemporary Poems Mostly about People Who Do Awful Things

I Stay at Home

Brother goes off to school
While I stay at home
Tending to the boiling pot
On the stove, scrubbing the
Floor to a fine shine,
Cleaning the streaks off the windows,
Dreaming of being in a classroom
Traveling to colorful new worlds.
