Morse Code

I thumb the hollow 
mortar of mango wood

where nailheads of pepper
will detonate under force

This too is a study

in uneven compression
I don't understand 

the lesson yet 
or when it is complete

Some hearts will swell

as if to bursting
That much I know 

Some bury their solitude
like crystals

Room with no window or door
