Taken for Granted


Taken for Granted




Give it a name
a special and unique name
Name it Special and Unique
Give it two names

A stale crust of bread
decades old
A lone nail clipping
yellowed over time
A soda soaked coin
engaged against another
A phone number missing a name
written on white paper

Give it a name
a special and unique name
Name it Special and Unique
Give it two names

Tell it good-bye
properly
Tell it how
you should have never failed
Tell it now
before you discard it again
Tell it you
are going to fold in the ends
and tie a better knot this time
Put it on file
Set it on fire

Maybe you better not
Maybe you should
leave the cushion on the couch
next time

Call it a memorie
Call it a mistake

Author notes

Changed it up a bit with a new title and a few extra lines... Use to go by 'Take Care'

    I love how you took ordinary objects and turned them into more meaningful ideas. Sometimes the silliest of things can resonate a mistake to us. Mistake has been my middle name lately. I think I will leave the cushions where they be. At least for now... Great write! I hope I gathered what it means. Anyway, that is what it means to me.

    where is the fun when the cushion is on the couch...

    Lets take away all the cushions, all the safety pins and all bubblewrap paper.

    or not.. maybe just wait for immortality first.
