Nowhere, slow

Posted on February 9, 2019 by

The spent tea bag stapled at the top,

the icicles dripping on a Saturday afternoon

freed from any thought of what time it could be,

spread out like a soft cheese with hair

unwashed, snow with nowhere

to go, nothing we don’t have

we need

    I don’t know why ‘stapled at the top’ got to me but it did. I can’t imagine why.
