The Poetry of Everyday Life: I 
Bookmarks
It's like someone forgot 
that people are not bookmarks; 
you cannot continue where you left off.
I think I am the best storyteller; 
where you left off 
might tell you a lot about why you left in the first
place.
It’s like, we bookmarks
never had a lot of appetite for leaving anyway; 
that is why we always stayed 
as if we were stapled away.
I have a lot of issues with leaving.
Sometimes I feel letting go should be my staple diet.
It’s like my worst fear is FOMO too 
and one day
these dictionaries might have Athazagoraphobia 
as an adjective 
for bookmarks too.
