Pocket holds a brass key tight
No door frame in the yellow light
Steam rises from the cotton load
Monstera drinks the wet road
Rain hits hard on metal roof
Key turns in a lock of proof
No latch clicks no bolt slides home
Just spin and steam and chrome
Brass key laundromat night
Heavy rain and fluorescent light
No door waits for this brass key
Just spin cycles wild and free
Damp socks tumble in the drum
Sansevieria stands numb
Water pools on concrete floor
Key stays dry in pocket core
Rain hits hard on metal roof
Key turns in a lock of proof
No latch clicks no bolt slides home
Just spin and steam and chrome
Brass key laundromat night
Heavy rain and fluorescent light
No door waits for this brass key
Just spin cycles wild and free
Ferns unfurl in humid air
Dryer sheet scent everywhere
Brass key gleams in sodium glow
Rain won't stop but seeds will grow
Roots hold fast in terra cotta
Storm breaks slow like it oughta
Key remembers every door
It never fitted nevermore
Brass key laundromat night
Heavy rain and fluorescent light
No door waits for this brass key
Just spin cycles wild and free
Morning lifts the heavy gray
Spin cycle winds down today
Brass key rests on folding table
Patient as a root and cable
Brass key laundromat night
Heavy rain and fluorescent light
No door waits for this brass key
Just spin cycles wild and free
Brass key laundromat night
Heavy rain and fluorescent light
Key waits patient in the dawn
Roots drink deep the storm is gone
