<p>I hate the bleached <i>blanca</i>-hued walls<br/>

I don't mind if the paint chips<br/>

so long as here I can steal a kiss.<br/>

I want the pinpricks in the ceiling<br/>
|

where we've put some fly traps hanging<br/>

to catch the dastards who inside flow<br/>
|

when I can't make shut sticky window.<br/>

I want the clutter.<br/>

I want the mess.<br/>

I won't settle for an ounce less!</p>
