Damn capitalism, damnit to hell.

While you were getting your teeth whitened

I stopped by your place

I poked around a little, but first I washed your dishes

and cleaned your downstairs bathroom

I counted your shoes

twelve

six pair

and your husband's

twenty-two

pair

I washed my face with your soap and your husband came home and

made love to me

he didn't say a word the whole time he was here

I just sighed and thought

Isn't it always like this

I smelled some of your things

your hairbrush, and some things I found scattered around on the floor

beside your bed but it made me feel ashamed so I just tidied things up and left

when you come home you will see that there is not really much to do

so maybe you can just relax on the couch a bit

and listen to this rain

or if the rain has stopped

listen to the drips

and if even the drips and drops have stopped when you come back

from having your teeth whitened

you can just and listin to the wet.

That's what I would do.
