Margaret Alice - Mind Somewhere Else…
8 Views • Nov 08, 2014
Description
debris covering everything, mud
clods in the house, our brave dogs
scared off burglars, iron bars
opened with wrenches
Visited police, got a case number;
received Psalms and the New Testa-
ment as a gift; scrubbing floors and
kitchen tops, singing while I work,
burglar bars welded back
Sharp spikes welded to gate, washing hung,
rain, groceries, chaos, running to and fro,
folding clothes, feet burning, fatigue, con-
fusion in my head - what is the next step –
the day is not over yet
Dinner to be prepared, I need a rest, dreaming
is best, where is my heroine, what is she doing,
I need to switch off, rest body and soul before
continuing; such a very long day, have to
send my mind somewhere else
Far away from domestic life…
Margaret Alice
