'13 I Am Pig

 

 

I do not remember being made

I know I was sculpted to form a shape

embodied with a protective coat

waiting to be filled by your note

of course some change will help

hard work or pain you have dealt

No matter what, you know I'm there

Your ceramic friend, a future you prepare

Frail I am though when full you pick

paperclip, keys or even a toothpick

You saved, then I save you

you can break me, but you refuse

 

"Adding all kinds of narrow things

Of course it is not what you think

I'm fragile, so do not drop me

I'm replaceable, but, lets not see"

 

I've held what you need

in your time of need

If well kept, I'll be old

and shaped to hold

Whatever your choice,

You inserted your coin

 

I could have been big

till one day you hammered me...

 

Therefore I am Pig

I had a fun time writing it. It gave me a flashback of "some kind." I believe I miss it sometimes...holding the fat Pig on my right hand and the hammer on the left whilst looking at the cieling with a smirk... Muahahaha!!!

...and he asked her, "do you write poetry? Because I feel as if I am the ink that flows from your quill."

"No", she replied, "but I have experienced it. "
