such luxuries
a parade of rain
high heels on a
freshly tiled floor
like fingernails
digging into
your back
this is why you
work the extra
hours
so, you’ll be able
to afford such
luxuries
the pain is a gift
enjoy, lean in
with any luck
she’ll give you
a discount
another punch
on the card
three more visits
and you’ll actually
get to use your hands
