give it a day or so

I have eight sticky notes
on the desk.

the maid has arranged them
in a long line.

she rearranged my eggs too
in the ice box.
the milk, the water.
each side by side.

socks have found their mates.
the basket full
of folded clothes.

the pens are in the drawer,
the books aligned,
the sheets tucked and tight,
pillows stacked
just right.

the rugs are vacuumed,
the hard wood shines.

the bathrooms are immaculate.

the blinds half raised,
the curtains parted just so.

it's clean for now, give it a
day or so.
