I knocked on my friend’s door.
He was out.
I knocked again and his parents threw a rock at me.
I kept knocking until the door fell down.
I knocked his parents down with my fist.
I kept knocking until the air had a hole in it from my incessant knocking.
I knocked through the hole.
I knocked through to another world.
I knocked it down.
I knocked down every tower, sky scraper and house.
I knocked them all down.
I kept knocking.
My friend came outside to meet me.
He knocked me down.
Light as a feather.
Mr friend beat me at my own game.
I laughed and he fell down.
Light as a feather.
I stand, light as a feather in a world of dust and rubble
Of fighting and trouble,
Of toil and double.
Teach you not to answer your door mate.

I'm not really sure what you're getting at...maybe this just isn't my thing but I thought it was a little weird...umm, what else is there to say? I'm not a huge fan of the repition, but I've never liked that kind of thing. The reason I say I don't like it is because it makes it seem like you lack the vocab to expand on your own idea. But if I was to give you any advice, it would just to be to explain everything a little more. It just didn't make that much sense to me.
Keep writing,

I enjoyed the repetition you used when you were knocking on the door and the progressive way that the knocking became more and more. I would have enjoyed some imagery there, or maybe you could explain a bit more about how the lightness of a feather connects to knocking on the door. Also: "Light as a feather" is a fragment of a sentence and you wrote "Mr friend". I'm pretty sure you meant my friend. Would a comma make sense in your last line after "door"?
