Window Watching
Sheri in her cleaning clothes,
(an old grey former boyfriend t-shirt, and stained baby blue hospital pants)
crawls out on her fire escape
with a bottle of windex and old newspapers
Each week she sparkle shines her windows, both sides
giving her a clear view of the park below
kids playing, people taking a quick lunch break, flirting
Sheri doesn’t live a celebrity life
but she daydreams in her window chair
and that opens up a big, big world
