The traveled stares of tired faces
hung out off wood chairs
watching the story
unravel
they wondered where
had i been was
i there?
far from auspicious
my roughshod room
papers struck through with words
scraped up wood floors
the devotion of the place
toward suspicion toward
life
being seen could be tiresome
something bland and
undisciplined
being unseen held a promise
i thought
like a single candle
its trembling on the faces
of the walls
i tended to let the world inhabit me
so i might inhabit the world
