"She's Come Undone" - But Not For Long -
Recycled Bowling Lane Coffee Table
is right up my alley (by William Stranger)
Written In High School
I like to take old furniture and fix
The broken parts. I buy it second-hand
In stores where all the goods are marred with nicks.
I never buy the things which cannot stand
On two legs all alone. Replacing legs
Is just a bit beyond my grasp. Besides,
I wouldn't take a chair that sits and begs
To be redone. I like a chair that hides
Its worth behind a mask of dust and time
But knows no real success until I find
It hiding there and know it is sublime
And grand.) I've saved the power of this eye
To animate the chair I choose to buy.
(I wrote everything in sonnet form in High School).

They are superb. I have two grandsons - not to mention myself - who would not mind those at all, at all.
ReplyDeleteHmmmm . . . . I need to get a Levi jacket. I haven't worn one in years, but I like them. Your appliques put me in mind of some beautiful fabric art I own. Maybe the sewing machine will actually come down from the shelf! Thanks for the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteit took me years to find a jean jacket that fit, and i've always wanted to embellish it. i have fabric, ideas, and no sewing skills. any suggestions? oh, did i mention no patience either?
