the house upstreet
up on the corner top of the street the white house sits encircled by trees well off the road suburban island nothing too fancy a plain rectangle notable only for its size three stories rising to meet the sky
not sure why it speaks to me i've always wanted to live there in the warm summer evenings i sit on the lawn gazing upstreet at the house lost in the melancholia of old dreams rewriting the script of life i always end up in that house nonsense i know a change of scene doesn't change a soul
but i do it anyway just because it passes the time between daylight and darkness and there is one thing i own i would not if i lived in the house on the hill
i console myself with the skyshow the stars that dance in a storm of tulle as the sun is slain in purpleblue taffeta
unless one climbed to attic and inched onto the roof this cosmic ballet could not be seen from where the house sits
so i watch and i dream as i live down below in the muck of the herd grateful for small beauties i stitch together into the quilt i pull over my head to make sleep possible ~ copyright 2016 RC deWinter
