Mathew Abuelo - Poetry

Dexter House

What you let through that door
what sniffs at the wrong side of the door
the winds of need never break with a claw in your
prostate and shards of the Dexter house penetrating
your words that we spit onto the pavement 4
stories below.  

From our 13 by 9 foot room we hear the news
through the air shafts with dirty windows that hide
the end of the seasons.  

Here the patron saints live among the Roach's and
between the lines of the great American drama
where even doves fly on hawk's wings
