open door (limited edition print) · Milos / Greece · 2017

the door that leads in
always open for one alone
black gate to a blacker beyond
hollowed by gnawing questions
darkened from answers unknown
deep rabbit hole to the underneath
neath the white surface you scratched for so long, long, long
where silent truth sleeps buried softly
a keepsake blanketed by ocean floor
shiny nacre pearl, finders keepers 
to live not in but with you now
beaconing the way back to it
the door that leads out
