and put his clothes on

in the blue -black cold.
G

ached from labor
in the weekday weather,
C

No one ever thanked him.
I'd wake and hear the cold
splintering breaking.

G
and slowly I would rise and dress,
fearing the chronic angers of that house,
speaking indifferently to him who
had driven out the cold
and polished my good
shoes as well.
What did I know?
What did I know
of love's austere and lonely offices?
