the window

the stuck window,
the one that faces the back
of the house,
the woods,
the stream,
the squared yards, fenced
in.
that window.
you get a hammer, a
crowbar
and you try to free it from
it's frame.
you just want to open
the window
once
before winter sets in
and feel the clean air,
the fall
wind, you want to lean
out and look
as far as you can see,
then close it again.
