Emergency Stairwell
be aware
there will be
lovely fire extinguishers
vying
for your attention
at code-compliant intervals
keep
climbing
story after habitable
story
toward the last
door: prohibido pasar
if your heart
protests then yes
pause
at a landing
and sing the one
you began learning in April
never
will it sound
so beautiful as here
with no one listening
