recent trip to the farnsworth house just west of chicago illinois

at one point…I wonder

at one point this meant something more than a token statement of middle-income American house

at one point it had a function

at one point it was a place of gathering

at one point it was a place of needed warmth

at one point it was a place of cooking

i wonder what stories were told around this place

i wonder what the rest of the house looked like before it was no more

i wonder if i knew someone who lived here

i wonder if they thought their house would be gone one day

i wonder what they spent their day doing

i wonder if they ever wondered

…at one point, i wonder
