  1. domestic poschmestic, it just don’t work for me, and i don’t work for it because its all the ancient, but turned modern trivial and i don’t play that. i wouldn’t mind once in a while but every day and harsh mess if i let up–it’s ripe for mean and mean

  2. Our cat is a domestic cat. She is tame and likes to be around people. She is not wild. I don’t know much else about domestic. I will have to learn about this word more. Thanks for listening.

  3. I heard the screaming, the fighting, the sounds of broken dishes and broken promises being thrown against the walls.
    This happened every night, pretty much always at the same time too.
    When would they learn that they honestly were poison to each other and that two people that were identical were the worst match in the world.

  6. Domestic chores involve attempting to do the laundry while instead being distracted by pie. Pie is good. Good pie is good pie. Yay pie! Personally I’m a big fan of pecan pie. Domestic chores are important, don’t give into the pie.

  9. It is something that relates to the home. The place where we inhabit and live. Most of our time is spent here but most of that time is spent asleep. We should feel safe here and not worry about the outside world. Peace. Tranquility. Refuge.

  15. When I think of domestic i think of porcelain toilets and cheap brass handles. THe kind that leave tarnish on your hands when you turn them. I wonder how long the taps will last and when I’ll have to replace them. Next time Ill get those nice stainless steel ones that you see in home decor magazines.

  16. Domestic means in the same country. Most of the flights I take are domestic. I have been on two international flights in my life. They were to and from Korea.

  17. I am sanding down the door
    repainting it from red to beige
    while there I might tighten the hinges
    it always swung too free

    The stair carpet is old, smooth
    slippery, I want it nice, soft,
    something my toes can grip
    on the way down

    And blinds, lots of blinds,
    pull down blinds with no long
    beaded cords to get my neck
    caught up in again

  18. I was wild once
    before the leash
    that said it needed me
    and brought me to worry

  19. The idea of being a domesticated woman- living to serve your husband and your children as your most important asset to the world- is admirable, but also intolerable. Every woman has as much of a mind as a man, and it must be put to use, for her own sake.

  21. She said “chop chop”.
    The children scrambled up the stairs,
    scattering into random rooms.
    The monster came after them.
    A game of cat and mouse.
    The mice are never the winners.

  22. abuse. violence. we need to end it because countless woman are dying without a cause. There is so many better things in the world. What has happened to us that this is killing our women? Smart, pretty, ugly everyone can fall victim. Our society needs to change its standards so woman don’t think being beaten is an acceptable way to live.

  23. I think of a wife and her husband sitting in a living room with their child sitting on the floor playing with toys while dinner simmers in the kitchen. The dog lays lazily on the couch staring out of the window, dreaming of the world he wants to be free in. The child looks up to the mother and smiles.

  24. Its very handy to have you near. Always beside me, so familiar you even blend with the walls. Easily taken for granted, but provides the sense of constancy and normalcy I need to survive. The streets and the colors around almost bleed into one, but that is the color that I bleed.

  25. Domestic chores just didn’t suit Sophie. She tried and failed miserably, time and time again, yet here she was elbow deep in a bucket of soapy water.
    Sponge in hand she began scrubbing at the tiles.

  26. Good Afternoon
    I am your Domestic
    Objectify me
    Oh, what a pleasure
    Making Sandwiches
    Cleaning Dishes
    Having Children
    For you

  27. My thoughts, lazy, bovine, domesticated. A lipstick-love gone too sticky in the heat of the afternoon.

  28. “poor, poor creatures
    of the brutal wilderness”
    we pity them.
    raise our sweet domestics
    up on looming pedestals
    but it is the cats and the dogs
    whom we dominate,
    hold captive from the wild

  29. The warm feeling of the domestic cat sleeping on my lap. Ever so quiet, ever so ageless. She pets her own little brick-coloured nose and casts her lazy gaze upon me, two undecipherable orbs of emerald green.

  30. I’ve felt so domestic the last two months. Cooking for my man. Sitting at home writing and waiting for his return. Now I am back in my old reality. Back to eating on the go and drinking way too much. And I feel lost. I lost some purpose when I left Australia.

  31. This word brings many images to mind: violence, help, tranquility… That’s a reflection of truth, isn’t it? In every word, there are many realities – we should open our eyes to see them all in the lives around us.

  32. there are loads of domestic violence cases in the world, we need to work together to stomp out domestic violence dont let it go unheard. we need to spread the word that love doesn’t involve violence.

  33. We stand next to each other, in front of the bathroom sink. In the mirror I watch you brush your teeth, while I brush mine. We give each other toothpaste smiles.

  35. small little house mouse
    nose twitching, skin louched and smooth from
    years of being swept into the trash bin
    in this tiny dwelling.

  36. When i walk in the kitchen i see my mother slaving over dinner.
    sometimes i walk by and just ignore what shes trying to do for me
    sometimes i dont appreciate it and say how much i hate it.
    sometimes i try it and its amazing
    it shows me what i have. which is a mother who is willing to do anyhting for me.

  37. The pots and pans lay scattered around the dingy kitchen. He handed her a sopping towel, the water cold as it clung to her outstretched hand. She took in the sight as he walked wordlessly away. When she offered to help, her mind was definitely on something less…domestic.

  38. families and animals, neat and orderly. Everything clean and happy, except domestic violence, thats bad. but thats still families and stuff. all stuff to do with the home. Pets in the home, the domestication of houses. DOMESTIC! aahhh. I dunno.

  39. let me see where the dog is sleeping, cat is hiding beneath the cushion that dropped from the couch the other night. sounds of snoring and signs of relaxation everywhere. scattered pieces of a very warm welcome in your smile.

  40. My life revolved around the domestic details of my household. When did I turn into the person I despised? The kind who let her husband control her life until al lI did now was cook and clean the house. Twenty years ago I didn’t even know how to cook, so much for the plans I had in store.
