Make Yourself at Home

Make yourself at home

they say,

Make yourself at home.

The membrane is so very thin,

our veil between rooms far

too sheer for the privacy

that domicile suggests...

make your self at home!

Upon the transparent glass

the passing

of the most ordinary days,

those unnamed

--Holy--

the gaps on the calendar

in which we pray

for obscurity,

not guaranteed,

to ourselves...

Make peace,

friends,

I say to our selves,

for tomorrow, for yesterday

Make peace

as in an igloo

for our humanity,

that most unlikely shelter

where warmth and cold

have come together

--Holy--

Make your Self at Home

here,

...for the Holidays.
