three hours!
three hours!
the washing machine says
three hours!
my mum had a brass scrubbing board
on legs that went into a zinc bath
after we had bathed
a recess for a bar of carbolic
on it she knuckled syncopated jazz
long before skiffle was invented
blues in a blue bag
for whitening white shirts
she could laugh for
three hours
but a washing machine that says
three hours! ?
gerra way with you
