will make
them happy.
a new dress for her,
a new coat for him.
perhaps a new car
off the showroom floor.
another house,
another child,
another trip afar.
maybe this new coat of
paint i'm rolling on
will change everything
and at last make them
the nice people they've
always wanted to be,
no longer rude and brusque,
frugal and cheap.
the plaques on the wall
say in God we trust.
maybe then we can
be great friends. doubtful,
but let's see.
