break-in

and there's hair on the floor, and floor
on my feet
and there's a carpet somewhere,
where the places all meet
and there're chairs on the rug
cause it's there and they're near
and they talk in such words
in such ways you can't hear

and the doors all are open,
some broken right in
and the night men and ninjas
and dogs all come in

and they see the rug there,
with it's scrapes and it's lines
and they see all the chairs
their words soft, and combined

and they all change all their names
for the sake of the public
and they know not.to.be. noticed
IN the chairs or among them

so they paste back the doors,
and they quietly leave,
and the winter winds shift,
and the trees lose their leaves

gone the doors to the words of the tables and chairs
and the floors mumble too
under illusion, stares
and they way is then masked, and
it's clouded, with musk
as the leaves, and the sun,
dripping under with dusk
