Procedurally similar to
breast augmentation
Or possibly
A penile implant -
Without an anaesthetic.
Taking your living room
They rip off the wall
And implant a sliding-folding door -
A gaping wound for a week
Dining room loses its roof
New roof suffers prostate trouble
Drips, drips, drips
A real pain in the arse
(so to speak)
Quadruple garage swallows the front garden
whole
patch of kitchen ceiling
crashes down
where the surgeon
fell through
whilst fine-tuning the electricity!
With the family’s comings and goings
I hope this erection
Doesn’t grow out of all proportion -
As with most plastic surgery
The before and after
Offer a remarkable look at life -
Does the extension add to the house
Or does the house add to the extension:
Always remember that.
Augmentation can flop
Just a little.
