Verse – Earbud Wires
eaqr bud devices for the hearing impaired
pocketed pursed
tangled
intertwined
a mind of their own
…
like kite string on the ground
like an extension cord snake-pit
…
too short to reel
too short to wind around
elbow & thumb
…
too long to spool
too light to use
as a belt
…
double
redouble
tie in a knot
…
marriage can solve
entanglements
- another piece of genius by a fellow hearing impaired classmate, Steve Shoemaker, Urbana, Illinois. Thanks to Steve’s partner in life, Nadja, for the photograph of the ear buds.
