Prelude

things about the house shift to take on new forms
in new disguise, newest devices under weight of dust
and more,

old news to me but in store for her an adjustment
of meaning, just things now things to impress,
now dusted clean

of old skin and that which the skin cemented,
like when it was fresh, keeping blood at bay
beneath as it pumped

the familiarity of everything around my everyday
body, to now every web denounced and toenail clipped
and more.
