The Couch

Change your filthy clothes

Before you sit on the sofa

Don’t put your feet on the couch

If you want to sleep go to your bedroom

Sit up straight, so three people can sit down

Those cushions don’t belong on the floor

You two keep your hands to yourself

This ain’t no whorehouse

When your parents died, you did not begrudge

Your sibling who took the old davenport home

Because you didn’t want to hear ghosts

Bitching at you from the grave
