finding the middle ground

there's a variety of human beings,

the neat nicks,

who have the perfectly

clean house, the made bed,

the floor swept,

not a spec of dust

anywhere,

a place for everything

and everything in its place.

these people are difficult people.

you need to avoid these people

at all cost.

and then there's the other side

of the spectrum,

the hoarder.

where nothing ever gets thrown

away,

whether clothes, or magazines,

cards and letters,

empty jars of milk,

or jam.

it's no surprise to open a closet

and see everything

they wore in 1985.

you must avoid these people too.
