Tension

Frail hinges pivot

On a case's door

Commemorative

Souvenirs from places

Containers change with occasion

Cellophane encased

Displaying paper

Certificate

Credit years of service

A tool of central enterprises

The early hope

For permanence

The words the rings

Consistency

And

Social security

The miracles high tragedy

A thought mistaken for a memory

Dress lengths assassinations

Fractured family ties and christenings

Local posts will list your friends

In order of disappearance

Lawn scattered tins feed birds

The portion baked

For absent guests

The mass edition icon

God sent comfort

Your salvation

But who grants absolution

For sins that never were committed

Tension makes a tangle

Of each thought becomes

Inconvenience

Sound never penetrates

The servile edges break and faint

A thought mistaken for a memory

Clear the dust

From smiles in boxes

Pass the patterned wall

Recall their voices
