mother's smoking pot
in the bathroom
i can hear her butt
squeaking on the tub
as the water grows cold
around her legs
and father
is in the study
watching a vague
lesbian scene
don't go in
he gets to me
planting foot prints
where i hope
i'll never be
da da da da da
and sister phones to say
she isn't coming home
she says she'll write to me
but i know
she won't write to me
