Knowing Striped Objects

Admiring bangles on boys with nice bags
Knowing a calf is Chinese from the back
Rounding corners with patience and repetition
Wearing a fanny pack in the front for access
Leaving the gorilla hanging from a Kipling
Striping the hair to match striping on shoes to match striping in nature
To match striping in architecture
To match striping in molecular patterns
Gearing up and stopping when there are no more gears
Admitting that Johnson and Johnson's baby soap does not warrant a slogan that states: no more tears
Wristing a small face timepiece to keep with the thin symmetry
Not caring what happens when you die so long as it is painless
Not caring that the pain is painful so long as it is the last pain
Wanting more pain if it means you can live and breathe longer
Fighting fear to give up and not go anywhere
Knowing that a tree could fall on your house
Knowing that a downed power line could take you out
Knowing that phantom blood diseases are perhaps curses brought on by masturbation
Knowing that this world is only room enough for so many things
Knowing when to stop making things
Knowing when to stop collecting things
