Naomi's and Stanley Torment - The Villanelle Of The Home Naomi couldn't stop thinking about the home It was just so splendid and perfect so excited that she was approved of, the loan That morning, Naomi was shocked by the stones All around the garden she had to calm herself Naomi couldn't stop thinking about the foam All around the kitchen faucet The hot water came out cold and salty She tried to focus on a plumber But she could never remember the number Stanley her husband tried to distract her with a hug a kiss Said it was time to start thinking about an a home inspection Naomi couldn't stop thinking about the homes misdirection Naomi took action like a champ The home was becoming too circumspect But she could never forget the tone As her husband took the roll Before signing the closing papers Naomi nosedived like a happy baby born Her mind turned into a defect Naomi couldn't stop thinking about the home But she could never forget the passing loan Before hand the plumbers came and fixed the problem 2/21/20 Written words by James Edward Lee Sr. 2020©
