single neighbors

the neighbors wonder
why she's single
not overweight
seemingly happy attitude
the middle aged lady
who most the time
sleeps alone

on occasion
a silver truck comes
and parks overnight
then the lady she bounces around
for a day or two
and then isn't seen
again for awhile

oil monkeys watch
through dark sunglasses
the middle aged lady
as she lets the dogs in
led on a leash
through the back yard
in her back door
lucky dogs
