The Rabbit Hole

Down that street.  The big house, teeming transmissions
of penciled degrees from paper thin ‘pedes,
has basic nature themed accommodations.
Mud wiped under feet.  White fresh carpet steamed
and obvious windows certainly so
I walk on hands.  Here’s a photo I can’t hold.
Denver on rental skis on stolen snow
a sneaky crook took (much later it snowed).
Pencil thin frames.  Too much foundation.  Here’s more
in the kitchen.  A pumpkin on the counter top
hands over a knife.  I open a door
then I carve through a window.  Snow hasn’t stopped,
but Cinderella (who’s a lunatic)
undressed before one (still) looks pretty thick.

:) thank you Eve! It's actually pretty nice out though, don't you think? It was 58 all day in Clear Lake. I'll take some more of that.
