remodeling

blank, i feel:
canvas prepared
but abandoned, still white

i am letting the lack of color
remain.
it doesn't seem to matter
what the other hues could be.
me, renovated:
freshly prepared
for the next person i
won't let in,
stilled and repainted

enough paint will disguise
almost any flaw
the cracks become invisible
lines of glue begin
to smooth.
holes
are harder to fix,
maybe
a little plaster
but give it
a thin layer.
soon the dent
will go unnoticed.
