C.S. Fuqua


Occupied

The room with shelves.
The shelves with books.
The books with stories.

The room with a desk.
The desk with a tablet.
The tablet with pages.

The desk with a chair.
The chair with a man.
The man with a pen.
The man with thoughts.

The thoughts with anger.
The thoughts with sadness.
The thoughts with joy.
The thoughts of a room.

The room with a window.
The man with eyes.

The window. 
The window.
