Wallpaper Vapors

Wallpaper Vapors? I wanted to repaper my room But mom and dad said it’s too soon You just did it yesterday, you crazy kook But THAT paper had kayaks and today I want nuns My parents just looked at me, clearly stunned Had I gone religious all of a sudden? Ignoring them I tore down the paper with glee It wasn’t level, anyone could see And put up my nuns in revelry But the nuns didn’t pop So I decided to stop And hang up my posters of musician Kidd Rock But that looked too teenish to me So I threw them away and grabbed a painting Van Gogh’s “Starry night” looked like a dream The perfect wall covering, at least while I sleep... Palindromes used: repaper, mom, dad, kook, level 4/17/12 Black Eyed Susan

Well it's a fact that it is a woman's privilege to change her mind! Sounds like a room to keep one awake! Nightmares anyone? :)
