Chez Suburbia Poem by Sheena Blackhall

Chez Suburbia

Rating: 3.5


Another aimless day in suburb land
Joining the dots of hours

The whine of next door’s baby
The vroom of a passing Honda
Pass for birdsong.

Mrs Domeracki pegs out washing
Onto a whirlie which wheels
In impotent circles, going nowhere
Mr Domeracki slumps in his chair
Like pre-erectile man

Tonight he will go through the motions
Of coitus, bringing the bedsprings nearer
To ultimate stress
