The past in depot:
warehouses full of treasures
air-conditioned
rarely viewed
waiting

for a story
that makes you curious
sheds new light
on the artist's life
or a drama or or

something under oppression
something that makes the strange familiar
in short, the waiting
for chemistry with later
through an appealing story

(sell pebbles from the Kidron Valley
  as cornerstones of the temple:
  God's nearness in your hand
  with the wisdom of Solomon
  and his wealth with it)

Custom-made
with a story
the past may be
worth something
to us
