For sale
a wreck
Or let’s just say that she’s a jumble
of wonky wooden flooring
(and a stubborn set of sails).
The price
unlikely
Or let’s say that she’s a deal
of work along the staircase
(that flirts and stubs your toe).
The choice
difficult
Or let’s say that she’s a handful
of faults and broken places
(that let the gold light in).
