My head is weary
Of those rocks
And hard places
Overwhelming again…
And I am defeated
By dishevelmentation
Of my domicile
Too many little decisions
On what to do
And where to go
With this and that
There are just too
Much and many of…
I've knick-knacked
Myself into padded
Rooms of pillows
Quilts, comforters
And over stuffed
Over stacked
Everything…
Inherited
Handed down
Sentimental
Combined…
All
Lovingly
Generously
Sprinkled
With
Dust

Melancholy write, ebm. The angst, for want of a better word, shows through the quick, short, clipped off verses. All that accumulation. all that history. Only good for collectors of dust. I quite understand . . .

. . . and the Raven said, %!~#&(&#!$!

I understand too, ebm.  Any kind of "clearing" is a hard task but got to be done I'm afraid.  Good luck.

That`s some heavy dust, if the room is
padded` with it!     Just kidding... I adore this, ebm... you know, you write my story, so many times. I feel a kinship

All my best~

Amaryllis that makes me feel so good to hear you say that the Blue Buffet has allowed me to for the first time ever in my life find kindred spirits.  I am deeply honored you have found that in me. Your comments always make me feel good.
Thanks you for all your kind words. Eusta
