the door is open
the way is closed
to know the way is not the way
a holy fool marks sixpence
on the eyes of strangers–dead,
alive, whathaveyou
what is the difference
between alive and dead?
asks the fool
hands me sixpence
for the ferryman
are you alive?
am I alive?
who holds the door wide
who closes the way
who holds the space
around the empty space
who says
rejoice
the way is open
rejoice
the doors are closed
