A Door is Just a Window That Has Been to Therapy

#Prompt 131

A door is just a window that has been to therapy

and that is the entire poem

that they both have a way out and only one needs a key

a door gives the advantage because it locks both ways

you will find a window fastens only from the inside

keeping out everything but a sunrise, a full moon,

grief,

laughter,

a window stays open

the security is implied

that somehow a door is the one in recovery is a

laughable, when the window feels and sees everything

the only one fully transparent,

a peephole, it’s entire body.

Everything being just as it is.
