The Gift

Candy-stripe wallpaper bloody red carpet My cat put one paw in and backed out Never try to settle a fight in there Honey I think the room was made after someone worked too hard to get the kink out of their hair without pulling some of it out Of course it has a mirror but little enough to belong to a child's play vanity But honey there is no damn handle to hold the unused toilet paper Were they too poor to not have that either? Sorry honey I can't say anything really nice about it twice again today I reached for its handle and it wasn't there Just before I called you I thought I could make one with a co-hanger I promised to keep the instructions to myself and to try not to think it loudly just in case the Illuminati really exist
