poem - "always bring a door with you"

 

always bring a door with you

 

I bring a window everywhere I go to breathe fresh air & to shut out werewolves and other adverse environmental agents

always bring a door to enter those sanctuaries formerly denied & to escape enclosures not of your choosing

bring a self to transcend, to be

I bring roads to follow & get lost; let’s go get lost in the gold

& bring a sun to eclipse & shine

always bring a radio signal to play into the inevitable

one will need to bring a chicken coop & garden, a scramble of agrarian pasts

bring logic along to inspect objects  & evade wrecks  

bring your psyche which surrounds what is & joins that which is not

bring some mystic along to wander repeating circuits known & unknown to knot the specific

bring a key to unlock; bring signifiers & rings to rift all things

bring words

always bring a door with you & another & another to open out into the vaults beyond
