there is nothing left to hang on the walls.
new windows
new stove
new dishwasher.
all have been installed.
the new tile
shines.
the walls are painted a soft
grey blue.
the curtains hang just right.
the furnace
rumbles gently with heat.
everything is wonderful
and so
sublime.
i stand there and look at
what has become
of this humble abode,
then go out front
to take the for sale sign
out of the yard.
i've changed my mind.
