home
decorating
made representations ourselves
invested in others
lent possibles against the wall
hung up all sorts of things
thought better of
kept rearranging
as if walls could be other worlds
as if we had a difference to make
as if walls could be
windows
through the glass ones
thin mist passes
everlasting
all the stars and planets
the billions in their billion years
This is perfectly constructed like a window that still shows the sky, a sky light, because the universe sadness in it is just a whisp of a thing, like this life we can't hold onto. But just contemplating the walls as windows is a difference made, each poem each work of art od yours, Kit, the thin mists passing, the everlasting.
