no vacancies

despite

our intuition, or interior

skills

of knowing what or who

is good

for us,

we veer strangely

off course at times

and let those in the door

who should be

left out.

you have no vacancies

for trouble.

for gloom, for those

lost and wandering

in the cold night.

your empathetic

soul will get you killed

if you keep this up.

it's best to send

them on their way

and turn the light off.
