The ocean painting
A blue wave crashing the rocky shore
The initials unreadable
AR or AK, I will never be sure.
It hangs above a much younger brown desk.
Resting place for the family laptop
And all the other papers piled on top of it.
It used to be a vanity
But a flat and open surface was needed.
It is in the middle of the room.
Next to the dresser that as once thrown away for scrap.
Across the blue bed
Where all the unmade blankets line against the wall
And wait for night when they will come to shore.
