Very Few Things Are a Mattress

Very Few Things Are a Mattress

Oh you think you found an edge
what
with a toe
of a world that has an end
of a time that has an end

No Very few things are a mattress
knuckles of the fitted sheet
hugging its corners

Here is a box I am handing to you
the name of a place
you lived in is written on the side

Even before I picked it up
the bottom flap was open
The ground is strewn with
bricks and parks and an ocean
mountain-crumbs

At least you’ll always have the box
