plumbing issues

i'm bothered by how
the pipes
in my house are making noise.
a thump,
a burp, a loud rattle
and shimmy
of the old bones.
will it all explode?
will the joints spring a leak,
and send the floors
crashing into one
another like a soft cake?
gently I slip into
the steamy bath, just big
enough for two,
being careful not make
any sudden moves.
this could affect Saturday
nights date plan.
