Steel and glass.
Chairs bolted together.
Nothing leaves this room
of its own free will.
A couple of cold coins
will rent a locker –
small and gun-metal gray.
Pack away the outside.
Roll your emotions tight
into the lining of your coat –
you won’t need them here –
remnants of your body
heat will hold them
as the doors click shut
behind you.
