He who affords to live on earth.
What cannot He afford?
     (to live on earth.)

He could look, he could live, he could be anywhere else.
Why not the stars? (Too expensive.)

the lawn is tended to every morning
the gate opens for the gardeners

Green is the grass of the lawn in front.

All walls. He is satisfied. Is he? Is he?

Glittering. Glass. All Windows.
A wall of Glass.
His glass
(Let's hope he doesn't crack)
He is an opportunist of transience and youth
He is an opportunist of land and sea
