The Reason Why The Closet-Man Is Never Sad by Russell Edson

 This is the house of the closet-man. There are no rooms, 
just hallways and closets.
 Things happen in rooms. He does not like things to 
happen . . . Closets, you take things out of closets, 
you put things into closets, and nothing happens . . . 

 Why do you have such a strange house? 

 I am the closet-man, I am either going or coming, and I 
am never sad. 

 But why do you have such a strange house? 

 I am never sad . . .
