Grandfather built me a dolls house,
So I always had a home,
But now I'm in the confines of walls,
A corner where it sits, he sits,
And now I never feel alone.A solitary flicker of a light,
Rambling, howling, I hear
mutter under sacred breath,
Contorting my legs tucked,
Under and over under overUppercut my head my arms
Noise like pencils pressed in my ears
And as I write, I can't, I cannot,
Dare to tilt my neck to the floor
Press my feet to the groundSee four walls and roof
Little chimney dart your eyes
and see inhabitance, I wish,
I knew why you'd protect me,
But you didn't think it would beMe or her or a quarter of what?
Makes up me, I think, a home
That ferments in smoke,
And catawalling, the plates smash,
It rips and shreds, and I...No, it's a home, in itself, no,
Too small to picture the wild world
And in truth, this treasure is a curse
I write my seals on paper and hide them fast
But I can never break the curse,Mind can never meld, merge convene
Convenience serves no purpose,
When your decendes from a freak
For a box with a lid, scalped hinge,
Grandfather's box innocent home
Generations Blur like smoke,Cigarettes burn skin.
And we have the same.
