Wallpaper pocked with garish roses, gnawed imperceptible by the objects they're tasked to enclose. Nicotine yellows waste away upon them with unsightly permutations. An artificial fruit basket blurbs the same comment of unmoving, life likeness. The couch indents itself  with fled bodies, the windowsill allows odd couplings of half-dead plants. The window freefalls the sky's latest canyon, varying preceptors of light lacerate its transparency. Birds push in a compass fails sort of way just outside... their colors and sizes are lights knocked out of some giant mind. Back inside, the den serializes the spines of shelved books, and the strident terror of family/friend photographs. Tirelessly pulling out their best-kept faces, while peppered with dust motes. A splintered vase rests upon the coffetable, just off center, flower-less with a wisp of water inside it. A turned off television positioned with an idiot's care...stares like a darkened billboard.

Every space holds a naked honesty, beyond veneers.
