a couple steps
to round up and evict
the voices of complaint
Outside a fine mist
has muted the sky
but not the ruling green
which flourishes
everywhere it’s been allowed
And inside, laundry
is not as massive as it was,
and though the same blocks
hulk up against my progress,
I have some newer tools.
There’s a way to trickle forward
and there’s room, right here,
for praise.
