And Why is There a Police Car in Your Driveway?
Cf. Shakespeare, Sonnet 28
The days are a mess and so are the nights
Each day is burdened with labors unrelenting
Toils industrial and toils emotional
Everyone seems to want a bite of you
At night the stresses follow you to bed:
The boss’s write-ups seem to poison the pillows
The unpaid bills, the clapped-out car, the fears
The children’s report cards, the broken washer
You give life your all – you work, you struggle, you strive -
And why is there a cop car in the drive?
