Today is the first day of the rest of your May 2012.

Let us celebrate with a little poetry in honor of my soon-to-be demolished kitchen (and some of its utensils). I call it With apologies to Margaret Wise Brown.

Goodbye, Room.


Goodbye, spoon.














Goodbye, flowerpot that holds the spoon.




Goodbye, light












and three doors of doom.












Goodbye, duct tape












Goodbye, hip scrape.












Goodbye, doorbell















and cabinets from hell.












Goodbye, last night's supper smell.












Goodbye, rust












And goodbye dust












Goodbye, small drawer














and goodbye, floor, 
with cigarette burns I abhor.











Goodbye, blown fuse,















sink I can't use,












and holes left by some absent screws.















Goodbye, lead paint















and knobs so quaint












Goodbye to the lady with kitchen complaint.











Goodbye, wall.















And...whatever's up there.















Goodbye, ugly everywhere!













(Yes, Giant Mechano-Earwig, your days are numbered.)
