Broom
Marni Ludwig
 
My floor is shining because it is fire. 
 My ceiling is shining because it is air. 
 
You are sweeping1 the future ahead of you 
 like luck. It's ok, no one's listening 
 
to the laugh track of your life. 
 The sick call in their jokes, 
 
but they remember them wrong. 
 There's the one about the three stick-men 
 
and their drinks, and there's the doctor 
 who knocks but never enters. 
 
The sick call in. You lick your cobwebs 
 and the corners glitter. Everyone cares 
 
though there is no one who is clean. 
 I am not compelled to help, 
 
resting as I am, on the doorjamb（门侧柱） 
 of your perfectible world.
