the house lit of blue television of snow
the house where my father got tall
house of sturdy pipes house a home
for his sisters house of winter
boots and calico and wooden
spoons house of my grandfather
his girls grandkids house of quiet
sheer things of vinyl shingles
the padding around the house
the house of bins of old clothes and moon
light open windows of gulping
curtains the house of dusty aster

of kisses this is a house of rooms
a house of small closets and

candy tucked back a closet
of cedar panels of tongue
and groove of bulbs a closet for small
things for tall things a closet for slumped
tall things and small things this
is a closet for tall and small things

his niece, four years old
his head knocks the light his hand
steadies the wild

the light
