Home Improvement

So now it begins again 

Begins again 

     In earnest 

     This time. 

Never 

I repeat, 

Never buy 

An old house -or-

A house of 

     Any kind 

Be content 

To rent 

One never owns a house 

The termites do 

They are the ones who 

Really prosper 

Here 

They are content -

And they pay no rent 

They sneak along in the floorboards 

And chew 

What a stunning existence 

     If you're into 

     That sort 

Of thing 

If you really like the taste 

Of wood 

Which they obviously 

Do 

She knows a guy -

Who knows a guy -

Who's really good at 

Ripping the heck 

Out of your house 

But first move everything -

Out -

Of the way -

Thirty years worth of 

Absolute necessities and 

     Treasures -

I need a nap

Just thinking about it -

I will need a vacation  

But 

Oh yes -

The Money will have been spent 

I will

Be camping on piles of 

     Stuff

Stacked in the yard 

Or maybe spend a night 

At the storage facility

What a great business 

Opportunity 

- camp with your stuff 

For a nominal fee -

Have a campfire 

In the old bar-be-que 

Burning books 

One can no longer read 

Because one 

Can't afford 

Glasses 

Anymore
