While our mothers worked

While Our Mothers Worked

In the trailer park behind my house
Ashley got pregnant
Jenny slept with the bus driver
and Sarah cut her wrists

In the woods behind the trailer park behind my house
we found an old washer
in a train car
and played house

In the creek by the woods behind the trailer park
behind my house
the water froze
and we buried
dead bunnies in a shoebox
beneath the ice while our mothers worked
