The FAB&PP Poem of the Month for February 2010


the house is
alive

when i was
young in
another house i
felt it
looking
back at me
                 through
the mirrors
                 it was
out to get
me to frighten
me to death

     [i cried
     to my
     mother]

today
in another
house i know
is
     like life
itself
indifferent

to me and
to living
with or
without
me in it
     and

i fear it
even more
