BLOGMETENDAL DCLXXI: I would wash them for her.

28 Jul BLOGMETENDAL DCLXXI: I would wash them for her.

I always imagine them being washed by woman’s hands.
Never by man’s hands.
Perhaps in self-defence.
I would wash them for her, by hand.
A delayed warm soak with a slight ouch! of detergent.
Then a rinse, rubbing there and there if necessary.
Then hang them out to dry. In an awed spot on the clothesline, unless they needed to be kissed by the sun there and/or there.
With white clothes pegs, to match with cleanliness.
Finally fold them. And put them away in the drawer. Loosely, to preserve their soft delicacy.
And guess which one she’s wearing.
