he looks for a different door
in rooms without walls
in rooms which don’t exist
for exits to other spaces
traces of other selves
still trapped in former places
between the comings and goings
everything occurs off stage
implied in his scripted lines
yet here there is no drama
no audience no fourth wall
nor any walls to cross at all
he exists here now like you
alone with no place to go
