Laundry mountain vistas Viewed from my oriel Nerve deep encrusted dust Guilt my castle walls And crumb padded carpets To guide the way Down the great hall Of my Podunk prairie palace My kingdom lies Just beyond the intersection Of closed and narrow minded Highways Off the beaten path I’m Queen of Niles Reigning from the west Over the whispering village The royal hounds Booger bark all trespassers The royal cat not excluded Princess’ bunny hops In mad dashes Sending his highness’ Fowls a flight To do flips in the air Over my willow in waiting For me to claim my throne Beneath her Leafy wreathery To write |

Yes, sir, I find them irresistable. I have a thing for elbow room, breathing space and quiet. |

yes ma'am.... grew up with room to roam around as a kid and the nearest neighbor 1/4 mile away.... as I have gotten older, yes, I can live almost anywhere I think...but prefer, the sense of elbow room and a bit of distance betwen me and those who live around me. |
