impression management

A Poem by Christine


yellow house
blue shutters
lace curtains
door bell
police officers
always come
in pairs;
calm
chaos
hangs
on 
these walls
like the pictures
of the children
in christmas sweaters 
who smiled.
they did it
for the camera
they did it
for show
the photographers 
from Sears
would always say
"what well-behaved children you have"
