Description
Broken Windows.Rotted Floors.
painted eyes
that peek through
doors,
Look in cracks
of this perfect
home
and see the mess
you hide
with chrome.
It's Deathly still
in this house of ours.
Put up curtains
to kill the stars
Drown
the moon
with plaster walls.
our words
are lost
to empty halls.
Keep it
Quiet.
Keep it
Neat.
One would think
our world's
complete.
but it's a
lie.
pull back
the sheet
and you'll find mold
beneath our feet.
