Love Poem: One Day I Fell Off the Shelf

One Day I Fell Off the Shelf

one day,
I fell off the shelf,
broke into many pieces,
hands swept me away
and dumped me into a
plastic garbage bin
to be picked up by
a refuge truck on
Friday and delivered
for burial at the
junkheap of abandoned
hearts where cries are
not heard
