where the chairs
have forgotten how to hold us
the mirrors how to reflect us
the walls how to contain us

or rings the bell
a house that blows into the air
at the slightest gust
that buries itself deep in the ground
while everyone is sleeping

where the younger sister
will grow older than the older one
where the doors
no longer let you in
or out — Jandy Nelson
