        i put
                the wrong envelope
        between the black foam divider
        in your sliding glass door
        
        it is always closed
                to me
        that inimitable barrier
        
        i had purchased you a new love
                with the money earned
        sewing steel and earth
        i thought
        
        you see
                the envelope
        contained receipts of color
        from a wholly different vendor there.
