despite all of that

despite
the plush, the lush,
the thick
carpet and abstract paintings,
despite
the room service
and the turn down
at the night,
the clean
room at noon, the chocolate
on the pillow,
the soaps
and towels,
the water, just right.
lilies in a vase.
despite all of that,
the grandeur
and comfort of this hotel,
still
there is no place like
home
lying in your own bed,
head on
your own pillow.
