Spartan Bath






Separate spigots.
Chain and stopper. 
Light switch in the hall.

Reflection in a compact won't do.

I take the liberty to hang a mirror
near the jamb, pull my hairdryer cord
indulgently under the door.

Life can be too clean; I apply war paint,
mess with your modest towels,
bestow Cherokee mementos.

Lipstick graffiti.  Voodoo.  

I dead man's float in your tub;
leave my soap on the edge.
Feathers on your floor.
