THIS WEEK’S WORDS come from “In the Basement of the Goodwill Store” by Ted Kooser: musty, carpet, rust, glittering, cough, curtain, garbage, hated, found, flash, thin, forever
Skyscrapers around the world
With musty carpet being curled
Glittering curtains being furled
Outside the garbage being hurled
Mostly made of glass and no rust
And in the foyer can’t see dust
Forever flashy to impress
Have to dress up to show success
Finding things to do with finesse
Other things in life more or less
Everyone’s welcome, fat or thin
As they welcome you with a grin
