A Place Close to My Heart

Walk in through the back door and you’ll see the naked walls bearing the pink insulation, which is slowly dripping off of the walls and leaking down from the ceiling.  Cans of paint are stacked up along the wall, dried drips of color revealing the hues inside.  You’ll smell the sawdust and hear the hum of monologues buzzing around the room.  Someone from upstairs shouts, “Has anyone seen my pants?” and Bohemian Rhapsody streams up from the basement.

  1. the attic? this is a great description! this would be so cool to use with students as an example of how to describe a place. I did a “describe your room” assignment in january and they weren’t very good. could I use this?

    mostly I am just commenting to let you know I read it and to admire it :)
