Washing the Pajamas

Are those the same pajamas
you wore before we got here?
Probably.
They all look alike.
Then maybe it’s probably time to wash them.
How can you tell?
When they stand up on their own,
it’s time for the laundry.
In that case,
they have a long way to go.
And some people don’t even wear pajamas.
They’re married.
I was too,
sixty long years.
We’re not talking about pajamas any more,
are we?
No,
we’re not.
