Repetition

The same café shutters rise.
The same walkway is swept.

 

The same pot is placed on the stove.
The same bread is sliced.

 

The same greeting passes between neighbors.
The same path to the market is walked.

 

The same cup is rinsed and filled.
The same seat on the tram is taken.

 

The same shop sign is unlocked.
The same street corner is turned.

 

The same window is opened to the morning.
The same bag is carried home.
