Bench Made


My verse is like

a bespoke set of clothes,

 fit the thing that counts

 

Each article worn,

 new memories born,

to tighten or let out

 

My head to my toes,

its covering goes,

whose message spoken clear

 

To tailor new moments,

each stitch a new thread

—bench made to endear

 

(The New Room: April, 2021)
