Mansion Overlooking the Old Woman's Mind

With her finger tips gently posed
over her top lip, a sort of cage
to trap the gasp that she might let out
she closed the blinds to the last window
in her entire house and turning away
to go make her tea before bed, her head said
"There it goes, everything I've ever known
about the outside world.
Nothing will be the same come morning."
