raze you gauge the distance
from the tip of one wet lip
to a window behind which
a small white dog barks
and will not stop

hands encase the space
between softness and sound

you'd climb the three-legged
stand that supports your camera
if you thought it would take
your weight without buckling

even tasked with the thought
of serving as your ladder
it seems to tremble

objects fear the unknown
at least as much as we do
