Scratch

Every Monday I receive Tiny House Swoon in my email. Tiny is appealing, even as I sit in my own not-so-tiny blue recliner from This End Up. I bought it almost thirty years ago now. It has seen me through A Lot, this chair. It is part of my Scratch. I do some of my best mining here.

I think I have to
build it all
from scratch.
Scratch
is all I have anyway.
I stare at tiny houses
Think life would be so much better
Were I to live in one
I had built
from scratch.
Scratch is all I have.
Dig down deep:
Scratch
Listen to the rain:
Scratch
Sit in the blue recliner
from 1989
Scratch
So much scratch
There is treasure there
Somewhere
A pot of gold
This side of the rainbow.
Scratch.
