protect your house
wrap it again and again
thick fabric no frays
hold it close to your
side body
rib cage
if its too thick to see through
patch it
layer it lightly
but more than once
hex your ex
heal your sister
lock your doors to make soup and other
beautiful things
hold it close to your
side body
rib cage
my house is on fire
he carried the matches in his left pocket
and the keys in his right
for this there is judgment
for this there is the tower
for this there is driftwood and
salvation
stones plaster and time cement
i don't want to see you again
my house doesn't want to see you again
we are searching for safety in anyway that fits
printed
deleted
folded and
burned
