Service Please
Paul Cordeiro
łNext Time, Išll marry for money.˛
She says it after shešs tired
like an Heiress from counting her millions.
Shouts for us to pick up toys and books
off the floor she doesnšt want to clean ever.
Shešs got a headache no kid in the house
wants to turn the volume of death rap down on.
Fed up, she pours herself a long hot bath.
She likes it when Father of the House
rubs her back and shoulders.
Makes coffee and breakfast.
Weighs in with his belly and bones
to whisper the right words and kisses
and packs up and sends
the other impulsive kids off to school.
