16 september

up again the down and we will turn the rest away
chase memory up the stars its hat
the fields we farm and smiles we charm
live in the house yourself built
only the right numbered rooms -- no more
barely a ceiling but maybe a floor
foundation to grow from
sun to be shaded from
connecting the dots to adopt a new path
no laugh to track but relief to collapse
safe in the yes paired with please

Reading this piece, this line came to mind: "the house which built you." And I thought, wow, that's pretty clever. Which it is, but I wanted it to be uniquely clever and it's not that, since it's a country music song already. Шкода!
