the closet

it's a small closet.
a broom closet.
a pair of boots in
the corner,
a ball.
a bat.
a glove, a bag of salt
for ice
when the snow
falls.
a coffee machine, unused.
four coats, two
of which aren't yours.
it's hard to close
the door at times.
you have to tuck in
the umbrella,
the mop,
the can of paint,
gloves, loose and unmatched
scattered
on the floor.
