You look through the rooms
and out the window
on the other side.
Some old yellow leaves
hanging on a branch
like tattered flags.
Red-tiled rooftops
against the blue sky.
Flames from burning leaves
invisible in the sunlight.
The edges of things…
The difference between
one and none.
“Not one, not different.”
