was in shambles.
broken chairs, wobbly tables.
the yellow stuffing
popping out of the sofa.
a bed on the floor,
leaky faucets,
squirrels in the attic,
mice in the cupboard.
but she used to tell
me to go
into the bathroom and
look at the new
shower curtain she just
hung on the pole,
proud as can
be with the plastic
pink flowered sheet
now hiding
the brown tub.
