beauty elephant speaks




i hung an ancient wooden door,
original latch and cast hinges,
white porcelain knobs

plumb
on two intersecting
floating
sprung spruce arcs
curved threshold in
persistent red elm


the compliant artists agree
to discredit the pursuit
of beauty and banish
the word itself

the speaking
might remind us
what's at stake
