she was more of a rental

at first it was more
of a rental than a forever
kind of thing.
nice on the outside.
big rooms,
a lake,
the woods.
quiet and easy
with plenty of parking.
a one year lease.
it felt good for a while.
the neighbors were
friendly, but not
too friendly.
i would have bought
the place
if not for the plumbing
and bad wiring.
the leaky basement
and bats in the belfry.
one year with her was
plenty.
