American Life in Poetry: Column 573 by Philip Terman
Philip Terman is a Pennsylvania poet who, with his family, lives in a former oneroom schoolhouse. And whenever there’s a one-room schoolhouse you can count on just a little wilderness around it. This is from his new and selected poems, Our Portion, from Autumn House Press. — Ted Kooser, U.S. Poet Laureate

The Cleaning Fairies We give you your weekends back!
She was a figure approaching, a presence outside a kitchen window, framed by the leafless apple trees, the stiff blueberry bushes, the after-harvest corn, the just-before-rain sky, a shape only narrow bones could hold, turning its full face upward, head tilted to one side, as if to speak. I want my life back.
