Worldfuls


No one is doing it wrong.

The dog-eared Book is pretending to listen
while her pages inject into me wisdom
and make me howl.

The Television has gotten cattier
since I last turned him on.

The Washing-machine that cowers under
the stars is a little too afraid
I'll shock her.

The Switchboard will stick to me
until his last.

The Doormat is a pseudo prostitute,
but she isn't doing it wrong.

The Doors with treasure in their armpits,
the Windows stark naked
and the Ventilators contriving a silly scene;

the Paperweight eying a lizard
and the Ant beading herself into
a mute song-

They aren't doing it wrong.
