Portals

 


Our hermit status

is not one we chose on purpose  -
the closing portals of communication
were more like grass growing over,
and blackberry vines - things we thought
we'd attend to, when next - if only -
we could get the chance

But after a time I think maybe
we won't even know
where the portals were,
won't know how to open them up,
won't remember, maybe,
why it would be
important to do so.
