door in the wood

              — and yes i recall
the hill with the tree and
the door and the key
but i don't think it
will turn for me
anymore

— so who will remember
when the rain starts to fall
of that door in the wood
to let the ghost
of me in?

    Great Lyrical piece, Michael. I can hear this over (mixed quite low down) a piece slowwave music. Challenge…
