The Chandelier
I bought a chandelier
and built a house around it
It was one of a kind
and heavy too
it reminded me of a castle
So I took it home
put it in the attic
because
there was nowhere to hang it
It had to have space
to hang
It needed room
to be seen
So the house was built
to house
the chandelier
And now it hangs in the foyer
of my home
And my home
hangs like the chandelier
over my head
