This House

This house is small 
it smells like gall
can't move my feet
there is no heat
this house is old
this house is cold
the roof is off
and so I cough
help.

She Sits In a Room

This is her house 
Her four walls
Look from any angle,
There are still four walls and a door

She stares out of her misty window
Still her little house in blue skies and cloudy rain
Her life she lives
Her days she conquers
And where does she go?
To her little house
Her four walls and a door.

Sweet Dreams

I would live in that house in my imagination,
sleep in the rafters of that old house 
play cards on a small table by dim light 
in my imagination there, where family waits,
a warm bed with many quilts.  My favorite
parts of this whole life are there in that house
where I was so green as to believe happiness
was a warm place in the rafters, dreaming.

The Lords House

I walk into the lord’s house
All I can see is a mouse
Where have all the people gone
I look outside and see it is dawn
This house should be full 
Not empty like the candy bowl
The savior has come at last
You should have left your past
Now while I fly high
You stare in the sky
This world is coming to an end
Repent your ways and push around that bend
The lord will always take one more
In his house nobody is poor

Crystallization

Colored ice glittering in a vapor trail
crystallized path of a purple slug
loud voices add to the silence
delicate wings drip of pastel dust
crystallized path of a purple slug
heavily moistened musty smells of life
delicate wings drip of pastel dust
Silent celebration in a house of glass 
heavily moistened musty smells of life
loud voices add to the silence
Silent celebration in a house of glass 
Colored ice glittering in a vapor trail
