Don’t Come In
You trampled in, your namesake
Dirtying my new, unbroken floor.
I protested. You laughed me off.
But I wasn’t fucking joking.
I like my space spick and span
So I can feel my feet on the ground in
My
Home.
Take your shoes off when you come in.
Better yet, don’t come at all.
I won’t be a maid at my own place.
I refuse to
Crouch to scrub it out of the
Carpet
Again.
I’ll only level to paint my watercolors
And crochet my concentration.
Take your raid and go
And I’ll keep your lighter.
I always likes the flame of it more than
You
Did.
