A room
filled with
talking, yelling, laughing,
looking, watching, gazing
at cases all around
You blink once
and once again
and lift your head
so you can see through the
small, so small crevice
between the painted, wooden,
old, smelly, narrow case and lid
And peek at
laughing, looking, talking,
watching, yelling, gazing
at your case
mummy.
