There’s a view through the gap in the fence
A white picket frame for the neighbor’s picture perfect landscape
She cut the shrubs in shapes like figureheads
And cross-hatch lines are measured and mowed in the grass

She’s on hands and knees
Pulling weeds

She keeps herself busy
Making things pretty
She follows the lines
For all of the neighbors here to see

There’s a view through the gap in her dress
From the front side down rolling through curves and necklace
Only she would weed in her Sunday best
With a side slit cut high up her leg to her thigh

She’s on hands and knees
Pulling weeds

She keeps herself busy
Making things pretty
She follows the lines
For all of the neighbors here to see

There’s a view through her eyes to her soul
From sunlit blue to the empty void and vaccum
You can see through the lies and the beautiful
To the desperate wife searching for life in the sand

She’s on hands and knees
Pulling weeds

She keeps herself busy
Making things pretty
She follows the lines
For all of the neighbors here to see
