onion

Too polite the window
dressed in white, pleated,
blooming brazen curtain
flailing in the sun
trespassing the doorway
waving to the alley
out the balcony
hailing surrender, see

The things I open:
drawers, closets, cupboards,
books- their covers, no
their emptiness now clutter
is the box-within-the-box
an apartment.

Cut into the wall window
Wrapping paper: one of those gifts
A certificate taped to the bottom
A giant cube of foam

Open all such packaging ,
invite everything
