down sizing

nervous now
after divorce
and
without
the enormous
house
and yard,
the blue pool.
the country club
gate
now locked
tight.
sitting in
her condo
with the large
tv
against the wall,
the dried flowers
bunched
together in a
vase,
watching
the view,
she selects
wallpaper
for a powder
room where you
have
to muscle
the door open
because
the frame
is bent
and you must turn
the knob
hard to the left,
then right.
