it's late
1:24 am to be precise
or maybe early
depending on your timezone
and your point of view
not a creature is stirring
in this barracks of a house
i've climbed the stairs -
the very ones
my father tumbled down
and at the bottom of which
broke his crown -
to the bedroom
with the window facing west
and how fitting for a witch
to face the west
though the eyes of the knotty pine walls
mock me
i slept in this room -
long ago and faraway -
for many years
i don't call it my room
for as long as
my drill sergeant mother lives
(and i have no doubt
she will bury me
and cry a few self-righteous tears
when my ashes hit the dirt)
this entire house
and everything in it will be hers
just as it always was
