Necessarily, roof fell in
Doors broken down
Used as rustic tables
In the palace of the mind

What once segregated
Now feeds community 
In stark inhospitable 
Places fringe dwellers 

I framed you differently 
Than you allowed
Reckoned upon forever
Happiness elusive

Go about our business 
Making homecooked life
Ones you might like
Hope someone looks after you

If I can’t hold you
In my arms
