Family Business

If there were a language for walls, It would mumble, Per broken jaws. The sun would shine through fragmented holes, A windows' lone goal? To magnify heat, Til' all was engulfed. With confirmed dead inside, None knock, as they've read inscribed: "Family tree, Difficulty, Unavailable." "Family business, Buy one, One comes free, Fire wood sale."
