Threshold

I really don't believe there's no-one there

Empty rooms turn inwards upon themselves

As they remember

Could not see past the painful windows

For the expenditure that should renew

Standing, staid up and waking through

The threshold

Glancing

Glaring around and hearing

Heartening a distant call

A fatal fallacy

Far off

Thought of over

Obviously the varnished

Vanquished floor

Over the old sideboard

Clanking into the old siding

1986
