GUESS LIST
A gust is a guest unwelcome and
welcome all the same nevertheless is
not is nor not is not is a gist is
anyone’s guess is anyone’s kiss list is
anyone’s guess mist is anyone’s guest
wish is all gussied up is a
manifestation of gestation is a gesture
a gush on a crush with a blush whose
rush is all hush mush with gusto a
pull and a push to ashes to dust if 
you must get dusty with dust neither
just nor unjust.

DUST BUNNIES TO DUST BUNNIES

Another one sweeps the dust.

Another one sweeps the dust into little piles.

Another one sweeps the little piles of dust into a dustpan.

Another one dumps the dustpan full of dust into a trash bag inside a trash can.

Another one removes the trash bag full of dust and waste from the trash can and drops it into another trash can full of full trash bags.

Another one picks up the trash can full of trash bags full of dust and waste and dumps it into a truck full of full (and half-full and partially full) trash bags full of dust and waste.

Another one dumps the truck full of trash bags full of dust and waste onto a landfill.

Another one drives a front loader through the landfill and covers the trash bags full of dust and waste with dirt and other waste.

Another one surveys a plot of land where trash bags full of dust and waste will go when the landfill is landfull.

Another fool fills a trash bag full of what is no longer filling.

Another fool fills a trash bag full of what is no longer fulfilling.

Another full fool is fooling themselves with something else more fulfilling.

Another fool is staring at the trash can and wondering if it should go out since it is only half full.

Another fool is staring at the trash can and wondering if it should go out since it is only half empty.
