this house is sinking

the lights were out

the faucet was dripping

the tile was cracked

and the floorboards were creaking

I came to this house after going to Ace

with lightbulbs screws putty and more

and when all is said and done and

“I fixed this house!”

the fact remains

this house is sinking

how am I going to right this wrong house?

if this house sinks,

will I go with it?

would it not be cheaper to just

tear down the Old and

make something New?
