what's next

with the promise of beer
and pizza, your crowd
gathers
in the early morning.
there is lifting to be done.
boxes,
furniture.
pictures to be hung,
once centered
and marked
where the nail should be.
the carpet goes
down, paint onto
the walls.
tables moved
and chairs placed under
them.
dishes find their
way into the cupboard,
silverware
into a drawer.
the beds get made.
before long, everyone
after eating and drinking,
has left, leaving
you alone
to figure out what's
next.
