Rooms with furniture inside.
Inside buildings. Buildings repeat in a city.
Food left on table rewrites a presence.
A room refuses help. Chairs remain, and later.
Animals who live in maps of forests.
Forests shaped like rooms in building.
Animals labour to expand the boundary.
Rooms of forests on another coast.
Buildings recycle a muscular tension.
From a distance it looks the same.
