Stained Carpet
White cotton balled Q-tips;
Orangey yellowed fuzzy basketballs;
Purple covered lemon balls, lemon heads;
Melted down into the carpet;
Once a highway in the skies;
Home is where the heart is now;
Wrong-way Jones is left way out;
Salamander Samuel eating raw trout;
Carpet stained by Shout;
Pre-teen agers learning to make out (What!)
Melody played by a museum;
Gases arranged by Albert Texan;
Opera souring panes;
Wrong-way Jones spilled his lemonade;
What's all this walking in this room about. . .
Carpet stained by Shout;
written by James Edward Lee Sr.
