watching women at the laundromat
watching women at the laundromat
watching women at the laundromat
the mad wash tumbling
jeans wrapped in knots around
each other their legs no longer
filled with walking underwear
loose free to contain generations
to come nylon slipping past
turmoil of cotton and polyester
tossing like gymnasts above the fray
hotter than all the rest airy as dreams
the mad wash tumbling
jeans wrapped in knots around
each other their legs no longer
filled with walking underwear
loose free to contain generations
to come nylon slipping past
turmoil of cotton and polyester
tossing like gymnasts above the fray
hotter than all the rest airy as dreams

Re: watching women at the laudromat
Laudromat, it that a place where clothes are lauded?
Re: watching women at the laundromat
I guess that's why we need editors. I've looked at this poem here and on my own site several times and never caught that spelling error.

Re: watching women at the laundromat
The poem is about ,'watching women at the Laundromat'. not the 'laudromat' alone.

I confess I am weak in my spelling.

loved the tumble, the emotion of over heated clothes, cast out to their own reward, i'm a little sad, but delirious all the same.
liked this poem very much,
