Replying to a comment on:
Recycle (Free verse) by Patsy
i am just with the rain tonight.
i have to think about where this
water comes from, how long it's been
water.
i am between your Seine and
you Rhine,
am decided what chunk to take,
how long to chew.
So it occurs to me
that you occured to me
first
when i tried to open the milk carton
backwards
my fingers weren't thinking
of the task at hand:
they were remembering
but what they were remembering
i don't remember.
But today my walls are paper.
i soak up everything surrounding my shell,
you please are like water and
you are like scissors
not even pushing holes in the pulpy, wet mess,
but
taking (,) one square at a time.
