Some doors are golden oak
shine like melted honey
but also locked and foreboding
there are metal ones also
cool to the touch
futuristic and impenetrable
Some doors are inset
with tiny window panes
riding on hinges
like 1930's gangsters
A few doors
are flung open
swishing in fresh air
and visitors both welcome
and not
White doors end up
dinged with messy hand prints
from people
pushing and clawing
their way in and out
Ah, but the door in the mists
framed with a graceful arc
a jeweled curtain
veiling the mystery
beckons us
nothing concrete there
between you
and the other side
