We all sat in the family room last night, having cleared it of all the tchotchkes and movable furniture. It was beautifully spare. We all noticed this. The rug that will be replaced today even looked significantly better last night.
The family room lives in the living room
For today.
New carpet will soon arrive through the door.
We contemplate slipcovers.
The TV proved too heavy
For the two of us
So two others from The Salvation Army,
Two men in recovery,
Hauled it away.
Now
There is a flat screen
On a tilt panel
On the wall.
Today comes new carpet.
It is a lovely spare space
With all its extras
In the living room.
We will see
What we will return
Tomorrow;
We will see
What perhaps
We will give away.
