LIVING ROOM

hope splattered on the floor,
walls and ceilings smudged

whispers
low moans
silent, eerie smiles –
a muffled hustle, all the time.
him in bed, eyes always closed
silent, still – ever

Since the door was closed last
the wind has not moved
into and out of the room –
Only the muffled inquietude.
