rereading the history of language poetry
in todays lesson in lesser homes and gardens, we are taught that removing the gunk around the base of the toilet may impact the structural integrity of a 100 year old tenement building. at the very least it will ruin a paint job and very likely cave in a bathroom ceiling on the floor below. as it turns out, i am the floor below and not the degunker, the bruntee, not the brunter. and somehow assurances that caulking will commence any time now are not filling me with confidence that the problem will be resolved by the thoroughly amateur home improver in either great haste or satisfactorily.
i should add the thought of explaining this to the landlord in order to extract the funds for a handyman to fix the ceiling does not fill me with glee. i have already explained that this is one brunt that the brunter will have to bear. i dont know if she will shoulder that burden with any more aplomb than she will the task of filling the breach between our two worlds.
meanwhile i just lanced the boil that is my ceiling. only time will tell if it can be saved. suddenly the battle hymn of the republic makes perfect sense to me. somewhere a four part ken burns documentary is in pre-production.
