Sarah St Vincent Welch #59 Ironing



Ironing board  cover design by Remo c1985




housework
appalls, cleaning up
sucks into the maw of Dis
the job of the female there’s no Zen
to find, getting dirty over again, but in ironing is
redemption, sizzle spit on metal bubble slide steam
linen preen and fold to crease edge glide the kind
woman who talked to lonely children
as she worked wiry Mrs Fitz who
won the lottery twice she
did the ironing
