Langston Hughes - Doorknobs lyrics

The simple silly terror of a doorknob on a door that turns to let in life on two feet standing, walking, talking, wearing dress or trousers, maybe drunk or maybe sober, maybe smiling, laughing, happy, maybe tangled in the terror of a yesterday past grandpa when the door from out there opened into here where I, antenna, recipient of your coming, received the talking image of the simple silly terror of a door that opens at the turning of a knob to let in life walking, talking, standing wearing dress or trousers, drunk or maybe sober, smiling, laughing, happy, or tangled in the terror of a yesterday past grandpa not of our own doing.
