Geometry Of Our Flats

The Geometry Of Our Flats
Is Measured By The Number Of Walls,
Window Frames,
The Heights Of Ceilings.
Depending On The Strength
Of The Lock On Our Doors,
It All Can Change.
The Geometry Of Our Flats Is Belted
With Photo Albums From The Past,
Favourite Sounds,
Colours And Cyclones Of Other Petty Things.
The Geometry Of Our Flats Ingenuously Invites
Friends And Foes.
There Is Food, Wine, Fallacious Repartee.
The Room Constricts As The Air Tightens.
Impossible To Tell Who Is Who.
The Geometry Of Our Flats Is Our Trust.
Day-By-Day
It Fills Us With New Habits.
We Are Locked To The Screen
As We Wash And Iron Our Consciousness.
We Obsess About Who We Are And Who Others Are.
The Geometry Of Our Flats
Is Our Protection From The Tangle Of Bad News,
Distorted Faces, Unshaved Streets,
The Neglect Of Unpredictable Tomorrows.
The Geometry Of Our Flats Is Mathematical.
We Are Arrested By Our Necessities.
We Monitor Our Treasury Of Carpets,
Apparel,
Dishes,
Crystal Windows,
Emerald Lamps,
Panther-Like Pets.
