clean money

i find a twenty dollar
bill
in the dryer.

it's crumpled and clean.

crispy, yet soft.

the green looks
fresh as if newly printed.

i stretch it out,
tap it down

and then give it a good ironing
on the ironing
board.

i slide it over next to 
the sheets
and pillow cases,

then set it on top of
the other pile

of money
on the table set loose
from

the pockets of my pants.
