The Laundry Yard Poem by Martin Lochner

The Laundry Yard



two sparrows land on an old tar pole
two women enter the laundry yard

“Chirp-Chirp” the sparrows say
“Chit-Chat “ the ladies talk

gossiping, preening, cleaning
i watch

effortlessly they exist

though I struggle to persist

it is morning
the sun shines

their wings, gleaming
their faces, beaming rays
the old tar pole turned into gold

looking with blotted sight
it is a spectacle
