How did you buy our house?

She asked from the child seat,

not really looking at me,

Glazing out to the world

As we rolled through traffic

Simplifying I explained;

By borrowing some money

From the bank,

And we pay it back for a long, long time

Pause for thought

How did you get it home?

She responds,

Leaving me to ponder-

Which shops you can buy houses from 

And where home is.
