Brother's broken car/s on the verge
New used furniture under the carport;
Latest verge collection's redeemed
Handle in door's centre

Computers, or parts, stacked inside the door.
Components on the kitchen bench
Some of it may be off
But the fridge is always full

Carcuses, empty shells
And organs, throughout the house
286s, 486s, alarm panels and hard discs
Some work. Which ones this week?

Noises from the office
It never stops here
Someone's always working
Always, online.

Washing hangs from doors
'cause our sun's too bright
Clothes fade
Before they ever stain beyond  mum's washing

Bedroom. Never 'clean.'
Step over the bag
Pile of clothes, dirty behind the door
Larger piles of books
And the empty bottle

Never removed
For old time's sake
Detritus of a full and busy life
Relics of a past not always happy

But not always sad
Familiar lumps - pillows and mattress
Are comfort
I'm home
