The Young Housewife

 


Reading by Dr. Edward Vargo

 
   
 
 
At ten A.M. the young housewife  
moves about in negligee behind  
the wooden walls of her husband's house.  
I pass solitary in my car.  
   
Then again she comes to the curb 5
to call the ice-man, fish-man, and stands  
shy, uncorseted, tucking in  
stray ends of hair, and I compare her  
to a fallen leaf.  
   
The noiseless wheels of my car 10
rush with a crackling Sound over  
dried leaves as I bow and pass smiling.
