Poem


Security

a house that has seen enough
money pass through it to shorten
a lifetime

I know you’re in there
the hallway light’s infiltration
of what you assumed

to be a dark room, your silhouette
held in the drapes, a billboard
advertising fear

disguised as
curiosity, now guilt as you
return to your computer

and me to mine
noting those who stop
before your spiked iron fence
