IT SHOULD BE IN A MUSEUM

he goes down the steps

& she rushes to follow
& he stops on the steps
& it catches her out
& she goes back up the steps

as he starts down again

catching her out again

& they both stop 

& she lifts his hat brim
& he is preoccupied

& she projects fun

& he acquiesces 
& with his hands 

still in his pockets

he sticks out an elbow
for her to loop her arm inside

& together & in tune

for now at least at last 

they go for a drink

in washington dc 1936

A DIAGRAM OF A DINNER

a big roast

proper gravy

wonderful spuds

that bladebone pie

~

burnt pan smell
out the bustle
of the 
shut-door galley kitchen

brown plastic nozzle
on the 
mixer tap

~

someone must sit 

on the fold-out kitchen steps

cos
we will 
run out 
of chairs

~

mind your fingers
mind your fingers

when pulling out
the tables extenders

like its
a lions mouth
