over decorating, perhaps

there's too much
going on in this room.
all the dishes,
and nicknacks,
the pictures and flowers,
the curtains,
the rugs, the posters,
the collection
of little hippo mugs
on the sill.
ten vases of various
sizes from the Ming
Dynasty, or maybe
Target
full of dried stalks
of pussy willows.
the faux wood on the wall.
the electric fireplace.
the chandelier in
the bathroom.
the armoire in the hall.
the burning candles,
the music on five speakers
of the stereo
all playing a different song.
and now this,
a wallpaper full of
Canadian geese coming
down the steps
flying towards
the red door.
