Burden Aloof

Evasion stares at action
from the cupboard
and wishes that only dust
might gather among the 
fearful and the glass.

Shamefaced carpenters 
see these shims between
the world and its
particular points
and they resort to the blunt saw
and possibly fire. 

Contemplation bores 
holes in door
and absorbs the picture
as it reflects 
by the pinprick
on a slouch that's bothered
by every figment and grain.
