Obvious Things

poemaweek.substack.com

Sometimes a home does not
bring obvious things.
Warmth and comfort and
basic encouragement.

So you sail or fly off
travel widely and you
gain these obvious things

But you get a lot more
you didn't ask for
matriculate in pain

So you become a mobile home
dispensing these obvious things
to others unloved.
