Just some walls
doors windows
moonless roof
mute aloof!
Close at hand
reach not found
drifting island
melting ground!
Drawn curtain
dark grey shade
hiding pain
of un-warmed bed!
Rich in style
no substance
rings no smile
sings distance!
No goodbyes
no welcome
dim-lit eyes
echo glum!
It’s so easy
to be a family
but they forgot
what a house is not!
