I’ve Been Meaning to

If I had to pass this way again,
I would let the dog out more often
And repair the hole in the oriental.
Other than that I would keep things
As they are, even the other guy
At the typewriter, and my belief
That if you wait long enough,
The grass will come up. That is
The reflection in the brass handle
At the bottom of my stairs.
