Door 11



Lubna's
Arch's got
Nothin on you.

~~~

Come
Outside the
In. Be wind.

~~~

Wind,
I invite
You. Dress warmly.

~~~

Weathered
Openings — feathered
Invitations. Take them.

~~~

All
You are
Is straight. Open!

~~~

Long
Grown welcome
Berates the rock.

~~~

After
Dinner, go
Outside. Breakfast! Lunch!

~~~

Birds
Know It —
Need no door.

~~~

How
Long sanded.
Stand still. Gamely.

~~~

Feathered
Paint, sun-split
Timber remembers. Keys!

~~~

Before
You open
Remember to close.
