Here's the boxes--wanna go?
Yes, I know that they are flat.
You have to insert A to B
and C is down with that?

Don't forget to pack your cake--
we don't want a bite of it.
You're gonna need it for the road
and if you think we're fulla shhhhhhhhhhhh....
Take the posters down as well
we have plans for theater...
A mallet knocks one wall between
and we'll have the best of both

worlds, between the walls of us.
Little runway lights for trust
is more than we have now.

So go. I got you some good books--
great reading for a greyhound bus,
and twist that knife that you have thrust
between us, just a wee bit harder...OW.

Now tell me--do you feel betrayed?

The A folds into B...begin.

ouch

so real
I can feel
multiple layers of
frustration

after inserting A into B,
just C
what happens

oh man. *smile*

Now I ask you, do you think someone who can't put together a moving box is ready to take on the world?

*shaking my head*

Thanks for reading, Kace.

I love the music
and the cadence,
sort of between
the eyes
and through
the heart,

Whoa, that was something deep. I could feel every word and the knife, good poem.

For those able to take on the world, there MUST be someone to put together the moving box, the heck with it!

Great job!

Love,
Margherita
