STARTING A POEM
\nby Robert Bly<\/p>\n
You’re alone. Then there’s a knock
\nOn the door. It’s a word. You
\nBring it in. Things go
\nOK for a while. But this word<\/p>\n
Has relatives. Soon
\nThey turn up. None of them work.
\nThey sleep on the floor, and they steal
\nYour tennis shoes.<\/p>\n
You started it; you weren’t
\nContent to leave things alone.
\nNow the den is a mess, and the
\nRemote is gone.<\/p>\n
That’s what being married
\nIs like! You never receive your
\nWife only, but the
\nMadness of her family.<\/p>\n
Now see what’s happened?
\nWhere is your car? You won’t
\nBe able to find
\nThe keys for a week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[18,26],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"\n
