fill it up with mortar

any hole is a window
every wall is a door
all the ceilings are hovering
over all of the floors

all the windows are holes
every door can be a wall
the floors are foundations
or else the ceilings would fall

when the walls have no doors
the windows will replace
the floors provide catapult
and the ceilings give space

the walls are all stilts
so the ceilings can stand
and floors are the base,
the doorknobs are hands

windows opaque
door for the light
ceilings are clear
floors rise flights

the door can contain
windows cannot
floors mirror the roof
ceilings are proof

wall us in
window spin
door ajar
ceiling scar

in which doors are walking
reflections of ceiling tiles
silver like the floor
windows cracking smiles
