He carved slight doors onto the surface of everything
Some led to rooms made of illuminated tanzanite
Some led to toy battles re-enacted across a map of New Jersey
Some led to the gates of improvised ecological preserves
Some doors chose to remain enigmatic and stubbornly refused to open
Another door opened to reveal a museum of fossilized boom boxes
Some led to rooms made of illuminated tanzanite
Some led to toy battles re-enacted across a map of New Jersey
Some led to the gates of improvised ecological preserves
Some doors chose to remain enigmatic and stubbornly refused to open
Another door opened to reveal a museum of fossilized boom boxes
One fashioned beneath his cat's water bowl
Offered an unobstructed view of Pyxis
He installed a glass door over his showerhead
That allowed him to visit his family in Las Piedras
Soon his life was a convocation of half open doors
They became surrogate kaleidoscopes
Cunning invitations to neon arroyos
Compulsory rock festivals
A plate of asparagus
Blithe anchors
Blithe anchors
Fixed inward
