HOW TO CHEAT A DOOR

first thing
shake its hand
as if you greeted it

without a wink
push it
in a surprise launch

on lockstep with
its drawing back
press ahead

now, from the other side,
changing hands,
repeat above proceedings

except, this time,
after hearing a thud,
don’t budge

only treachery can do the trick:
the whining ring even stings
but won’t get it ajar

with your all too good manners
you are still
stuck apart

kicks, punches and bruises
all are
to no use
