to help
with whatever needs to be done
around the house.
laundry,
cooking,
massages and putting lotions
on my back
after a gentle
scratch.
she's from sweden
and doesn't speak a word
of english.
which is fine.
keeps the small talk down
to a minimum.
we communicate
in the way that jane goodall
would with her
primates.
thirst, hunger, sleep.
a big smile for happy.
a lot of hand motions
and facial expressions.
she's not a good cook
and she refuses to change the oil
in my car,
or do my taxes, but
for now it's working out.
she's in the kitchen now
making strudel.
