The House of She – Ellie Newbauer
It’s a curiosity,
Where all these Shes come from
Who rent space inside the house of me
Where do they stay through the day
As they peek from behind the curtain of my mind
Waiting to show their idiosyncrasies
I am a house full of acquaintances
Each one hiding behind their title,
Wife, Mother, Friend, Teacher, Artist, Monk,
So many more
All faces nodding to one another in passing
Occasionally a purposeful-She
Will stride forward demanding that
This minute serve her alone as others
Hide behind their imaginary walls
