Writing a Poem

Writing a Poem

Mostly I cook and
she cleans up.
It works. We like it.

We play fight over
the rubber gloves
and she usually wins.

itching for something
different this morning
I put on the gloves.

And she says in her
Terrible Tiger Voice
"Hey. What are you doing?"

"I'm writing a poem, " I say,
and continue looking out the window.

And for those of you left wondering ...
See. Hear it. Here it is.
