A Poem by Maggie Munday O.
not anything that can be put in a box
not cursive loops or first date perfume
not the sensible dimensions of parallelograms
not anything manufactured on an assembly line
not minivan automatic doors or stop signs
not mass produced fish food pellets
not anything with an ounce of patience
not deli tickets or doctor’s office waiting rooms
not the petty pace of gaia’s orbit
not anything quiet
not airport chapels or lonely water fountains
not silent showers, empty of echoing trills
not anything fearing the end
not dylan thomas caving to the aching mattress
not icarus struck by a sudden fear of gravity
not anything tethered to anything else
not a name or a point on a map
not a home, not a home
