The screen door opens:
A helmet full of broken flowers
purple, sweet
now rests on the stair

The screen door opens:
A soggy towel rumpled
green, bright
soaks the rug

The screen door opens:
Another towel
soaked and rumpled
is dropped on the first

Voices float through the window:
Oh my gosh, is it a spider
eeewww
sisters' giggles

The screen door opens:
little daughter
tells her dad
everything
