Description Slanted blinds hint and hide,
About the wonders just outside,
Rain stained windows, sun sprayed cracks,
Leak the secrets painted black,
The wind shutters, the shutters race,
To the face the space misplaced,
A place somewhere beneath the sun,
Where strangers mingle, and lovers run,
And in this world outside our pane,
The pain we seek is plainly stained,
With tints of childhood rainbow games,
Traded in for charcoaled fame,
Which in the end is nothing more,
Than a grave dug down to Hell’s own door,
But up above there is a chance,
That we may have but one more glance,
To peer out through those slanted blinds,
That tilts our world to change our mind,
About the wonders wandering just outside,
The opened windows of our mind’s eye.

Your wordplay reminds me of all the poems I used to write. The biggest difference between me and you is that you still write them This is the kind of stuff I love... and I don't think you need to be searching pictures of windows to give a visual - your poems speak for themselves.

Haha. I don't want to be your wife. I have a friend at work for that. I just want to be your...wannabe lover of an Elvis singing fly on your wall...
