I had an idea.
And then I burned
the pages that described
in schematic detail
the origins and organs
of my abstraction.
The idea resisted
conflagration.
My conglomerate mind
acquired a few more notions
and the end of the memory
was banked.
My ankles hurt.
This backpack
carries too much
organization.
I became an idea
and it was not healthy
because ideas
and organisms
cannot long share
the same face.
