G.Jane Dostou USA The Apartment
Yesterday, we found it.
VACANT
behind a brace of locks.
Unadorned,
except for cobwebs and crumblimg walls.
Bare...and yet not barren.
Sunlight sifted across hardwood floors
beneath a sheath of dust, stirred by our steps into storms.
Repeating our conversations simultaneously,
a spectre's sense of humor.
We took it,
complete with cracks and crust..
A commitment to our cat-off castle
and to us.
