The porch light
stays on all day
turns off at night
never could get the timer fixed
keys fumbling in slurred hands
scratching knob and door
growling, let me in
"you're drunk again."
wake up barefoot on the couch
with a pillow from the bed
rubbing eyes, shoes neatly
by the door
smell coffee on the stove
