february second time

I would like to live in a townhouse.
I would like to live in a townhouse because
every year I would build a new room, floor,
or balcony--and in this way, I would be the chambered
nautilus of homeowners. I would be the subject of so many
poems and proofs of mathematical beauty in a chaotic world
that my dinner parties would be the talk of the whole District. I
would always know what was coming next, and when, and where.
