it looked good online

they deliver the new
chair
six months later.

I hate it.
it's a mottled blue
green, not the solid pale
sea foam
green I imagined
when I ordered it.

it looks like it's shedding.
not unlike how
a rabid dog
loses his fur.

dang, I say.
and get on the phone for
them to come
back and get it.
three weeks, they say.

I cover the chair up
with a white
sheet. it's that bone
ugly.

and it looked so sweet
online.
