(Or is it old wine/new skins?)
Thing happening here: what does it mean
To put a new handle on an old door?
Is it a mark of respect and appreciation
For these appealing layers of old paint,
Or simply laziness?
A determination to protect what’s inside
By masking it with an aging exterior —
But doesn’t the handle give it away?
The world is full of questions,
But until we know the answers,
Our assumptions will always say more about us
Than they say about what’s true.
