Beyond
the bedromm door is everything that's not inside
this room. Beyond that door is a font door, and
beyond that front door is a stairwell, and beyond
that stairwell is another door, and then a sidewalk,
and a street and cars and people and lovely trees
and all-night diners and satellite dishes and libraries
and prisons and men stalking women and women hating
men and women holding women and men talking to men
and nowhere in the mélange of that vast world
is there even one iota of concern for what is happening
right here, in this room.
