People in Houses
by
Donal Mahoney

twenty-four houses
on the same block

everyone inside
milling about

one lost a job
another was promoted

one lost a husband
another got married

one is lonely
another has friends

twenty-four houses
on the same block

everyone inside
milling about

no different than us
in houses like ours

laughing or crying
all over the world
