With cap on, shake well before use
Or else you might misuse
Ground pepper treated to reduce bacteria
This life we leave is trifling

Patent
Trademark
Restricted

Wood chair with leather covering
Carbon fiber in my dashboard
Under the oak tree
Will we always be?

Elegant princess
Come to your senses
Castles in the sky
Just beyond my eye

Let bygones be bygones
And get on
Flashlights in the dark
Fading out of focus

To reduce risk
Read instructions

Where are my instructions?

"in a past life i was a woodcarver's knife: the sharpend blade of a wood cutter, the eldest son of the chief's brother: a maker of drums"

Love it! specially this part:

Elegant princess
Come to your senses
Castles in the sky
Just beyond my eye

If at first you don't succeed destroy all the evidence that you tried.

Ain't it a shame . . . no instructions.
But I'd probably build it inside-out if I had 'em.

Cute.

Often times
it's the instructions
that confuse us
in the first place.

When all else fails....but by then, I threw them away. Sigh. I like this poem.
