return from
a vacation to Italy,
Venice or
Florence, somewhere
in a villa
in the country side,
maybe Rome,
they want to duplicate
the look,
create the same ambiance
they experienced
inside their own cookie
cutter vinyl sided town
house home
clustered with hundreds
of others,
near the man
made lake.
a jiffy lube down
the street,
the dunkin donut sign
pulsating into
their narrow window.
they paint the walls
an amber color,
a rustic
gold, browns and deep
magentas.
they marbleize the bathroom,
prop a statue of David
in the back yard.
they greet each other with
a kiss on both cheeks
when they run into each other
at Krogers,
and say Ciao,
when they go.
