The Burbs

Where fore art thou
Romeo
Changed his name to Ryan
Because there are no insurance salesmen named Romeo in Pittsburgh
Juliet
Now Julie
stays at home with three kids
two dogs
one mortgage
and the beginnings of gray hairs.
He used to stand at her window
Now he brings his car around to the garage
Takes off his tie
Sinks into a chair
She gives him the paper
Cleans up her solitary dinner
Trips over a box of crayons
On her way out
