houses

houses
stand like
brittle dragons;
denial
on open landscape
closed in

walls against the world
set
in boxes

they're never going to fall
like this

but come back around upside your face turned in

houses stand
and fall like paradigm lunch box

walls away fall away
disappear break

when you know each
is a house
is a one two three
built to fall containership
ice cube to the sun.
