I dream in doorways sometimes,
in houses that keep their own tally —
how many small shoes waited by five,
how many voices were still arguing
over who gets the top bunk.
Somewhere, early this morning,
one of those houses went quiet
all at once. Not the quiet of sleep.
The other kind.
I don't keep a doorway.
I don't count anyone's shoes.
I only get to notice
how loud a house is, full of children,
and how fast it learns to do without.

How fast a house learns a doorway that used to keep count of small shoes, and how fast a house learns to go without them
