Wobble

Flawed as it is, I can’t get rid of this picture frame. Sure, I could just go out and get a new one for a reasonable price (praise the free market economy), but this one was free with my subscription to TV Escort magazine, an upstanding publication. It will take more than a little warping for me to give up on this frame. Sure, it wobbles when I stand it on a table, but isn’t that endearing? Who among us hasn’t wobbled from time to time? This frame and I are meant to coexist, no matter how much that wobbling ticks me off (Oh for Christ’s sake, just sit there like the inanimate object you are!).

Wharved.com I am a poet. I write poems. Titles and subjects and subsequent readership are all part of one fragmented figment of our universe, and it's nice that we take it so seriously. Hopefully the craft remains and grows stronger for our children. View all posts by Aidan Badinger
