Anatomy of a House pt. 4

The Facade


The grey of the stones
Rises three floors
Attics and turrets
And four sets of doors
Gargoyles perch on towers of rock
Cast iron lace where widows would walk
A time-ravaged beauty
Just a house, nothing more
But how your hand trembles
When you reach for the door
