The secret staircase is wrapped
Around the central chimney
In such a way a scribbler
Of allegorical tales
And ironies would never
Find it, even as he wrote
Of the house being haunted.
Messengers of God went up
And down that hidden staircase,
All night, every night, cultic
Site where only the scheming
Dreamer willing to wrestle
With a shadow until dawn
Saw the vision. Here's your self.
