Housing with a long corridor
by Hee Young Pyun (MArch II ’20)
It has huge windows facing the small alley.
A pale blue corridor moving through lights, gaps, moments – it’s enveloping.
You can see who is at home.
You can see a hint of the living room from the dining room.
You can see one-third of the kitchen from the living room.
You can see the end of the terrace from the entrance.
Waiting for the elevator – someone smoked here.
Buttons 1,2,3,4. One family on each floor, four families in total.
You might want to be lazy in the side yard.
You might want to live on the ground floor to have the back yard.
Walking through another corridor as narrow as your home’s,
you will meet the Broadway.
