"grief is a house
where the chairs
accept forgotten how to concur us
the mirrors how to reflect us
the walls how to comprise us

or rings the bong
a house that blows into the air
at the slightest gust
that buries itself deep in the ground
while everyone is sleeping

where the younger sister
will abound older than the older ane
where the doors
no longer let you in
or out"

in the centre of the path
and look up until the stars came back
and when they did,
