House Rules
Poem by Esther Morgan
They are absolute.
They are mandarin.
Sometimes merely folding a sheet
or making a bed
is to break them.
For instance there’s a right way
and a wrong way
to clear up this mess –
the spattered walls,
the tongues of broken china.
Which is which?
You spend the evening trying to guess
as you wait for his verdict,
hands resting on the table
like meat thawing for dinner.
Tonight he addresses your flesh –
Look what you made me do he says
as a flight of stairs
throws you full length,
a door walks into your face.
Ask.
