Life's a New Vacuum

Loneliness wears me from head to toe using zipper teeth lengths of excruciating, debilitating months that are capable of choking all my hope lifeless even as I attempt transforming into a bright mood color with a sassy sash to influence an upbeat attitude capable of playfully lassoing fulfilling peace. There is but one thing in my life I wish would suck yet, my plugged in, brand new vacuum will not work.

I think this is a clever take - a poem with a real difference life sucks and so does a vacuum cleaner but your vacuum cleaner doesn't suck, but in reality it does - complicated! Well penned CayCay, Hugs and Kisses. Jennifer.
