have you been traveling long?
you have the look
the corners of your eyes
wrinkle and shine
your toes want to leave
baby powder on carpets
your things are folded neatly
everything in its place
although you are so transient
please consider my offer
of perching you
on your stack of luggage
i can sing to you
and it will be so sweet and safe
and you may even find me
a small place as a guest
in that big empty room
before you unzip your files
and decompress
we can scream and sing
and the noise will
bounce back to us
in your hollow home
wrapping around four ears
like a bandage, holding it in
and everything
everything will be fine
