still life from active life:
the toys on the floor, the desks of piles,
dishes fill the sink,
steps covered with mud and leaves,
layers of clothes on the hooks.
is the house too small or
have your belongings multiplied
like the people?
who belongs to who?
chests heavy with grief, still walking around,
still breathing, still making stuff and yelling
you want more
with nowhere to put it.
yes 2 those last 3 lines <3
