Poetic Form 31: Huitain

Little Museums

Let me take you on a tour of

the museums in this city.

Houses with too many lives shoved

into open concepts, so pretty

for the guest. The smiles so witty,

but later behind theses closed doors;

dust settles on broken dreams, gritty

exchanges litter the wood floors.
