Elizabeth Romero: Another Night
Like a deranged animal
the refrigerator growls on
stalwart the stove gazes
out of dial eyes
the light is an angry voice and the room
breathes and swallows
slow, hopeless words drop
from the faucet and all the safe places are strewn
with clothing staring up with button eyes
the walls do what they’re supposed to
nothing happens here
