Monet, trampled and redeemed

Tonight
Our cheap Monet poster
mounted on Styrofoam--
bowed, faded, purchased for
$2 at a garage sale,
displayed for three years,
neglected for eight—
finally found purpose again
covering Ethernet cabling
which carries premium network
signals from one room to another.
As I walked across it, I said,
"Sorry, Claude. Such becomes of genius."
Another Monet bites the dust.
