I watched the washing machine
spin. I was impressed
I had never taken the time
to see her do
what she did best.

You go girl, I say out loud
In the basement,
dimly lit. She said nothing
and said it loudly:
terribly purse-lipped.

Of feeble sorority
offered late, she is rightly
unconvinced;
dirty laundry is better washed
in public-private partnership.
