Doormat Poem by John Weber

Doormat

Rating: 5.0


Drop your key
when you leave
and step on me
so I don't grieve.

I just tried
to keep dirt
off of your hide,
but you don't hurt

as I do
on the ground:
one of the few
who won't form sound.

Like this very much. Love the cleverness of the internal dialogue of the doormat. I've spent many years doing that job meself, it feels like. (smile)
