walk games stars roadside slices say
walking by the roadside
lost in a flag of stars
she used to think of ways to keep in touch
to settle for a small slice of his life
there was a time
she would have turned up coatless in winter
to the opening of an envelope
just to spend a few moments with him
disillusioned by his cruel games
she would prefer to do almost anything else now
say, even cleaning the kitchen pots and pans
Yes indeed - exiting the game and finding your own pleasure (and worth) is key - even polishing the pots and pans! I love the picture reminded me of a slightly more senior version of Janet and John reading books (if they are world wide) where mummy loves cooking and daddy loves driving his car!
ReplyDeleteYou know where you are with pots and pans!
