COMING HOME TO DIE 

7.Coming Home to Die.
Picked up by your wife
                        In the car you used to drive,
                        Let in your front door
                        & there you see
                        (As you had been told)
                        That your bed has been moved
                        Down a floor.
That afternoon
                        You go to sit
                        In your garden
                        By the sea
                        &, wrapped in a shawl,
                        You watch your wife
                        In the kitchen
                        (Naked as you asked)
                        Making tea.
