House of a
thousand doors:
I dream of the
perfect key.
My cunning eyes
fix on your taut lock,
dark, cool holes,
quite like candy,
lonely buttons,
something to touch,
plated mouth,
tromp l’oeil.
In the delicate
clasp of your silk hour,
I arrive at the
last latched room.
Fearless lever,
bright dead-bolt
shining tooth,
bit and biting.
Fingers pluck the
darkness
of places locked
and barred.
Skillful
break-in, mechanically precise,
If I hold my
breath, I hear your breathe.
Charming smile,
clean, neat hands,
the locksmith’s
virtue is his trustworthy face.
