to a Drawer

In this drawer opens our catastrophe
Waiting patient to escape from lost to found
China from Japan, Korea’s battleground
Shiny celebrations tease the young with immortality
Glowing prideful objects surviving their design
Where will they go from here, this chaos of our life?
Organized in the drive when the weather’s nice
Accepting when the price is right few decline
No estate in the union for these memories
Gone quiet anxious fights and love
Remember where we put those keys?
Took us here, or we with them, to begin thereof
Piece by piece our collection from a century
Tears of amber frozen safe in our heart’s treasury.
