...Deje Vu Poem by NikMorgan ...

It’s always the same
The rituals of weekend
Passing time on Sunday pastimes
Peeling potatoes
Washing the car

Men lined up
Compelled by regimental tradition
Ready to do their duty
To keep the appearances of spotless lives

Little boxes
Living in little boxes
Ticking little boxes
Their cars are never dirty
They never go anywhere

Busy doing nothing
Watching TV
Moaning about the drama of their ordinary lives
Thinking about Sunday
And buying wax to polish their cars
