one day i’m a welsh terrier
with my head out the window
paws on the plastic ledge
drool to the wind
one day my window’s closed
i’m a dumb dog
i’m irritable
one day i’m a spider plant
in a vietnamese cafe
dangling new curls
above fragrant bowls of broth
one day i’m made of plastic
offgassing in the steam
one day i’m a library cart
i’m a well read fiction
i’m a cracked cd case
i’m overdue
one day my fees are forgiven
i really love how rhythmic this poem feels to me
