for those of you living
on the razor's edge of despair
or outrage over our inherent
right of repair
Just now I closed the kitchen drawer
and
heard the scotch tape dispenser snap
into pieces --
picking up the larger
shard I tried
To tear off a piece of tape dangling there
and mused
to myself perhaps
I should try
to tape the tape dispenser back
together --
How meta is that
My inner daemon replied
And finally on the third try I managed
but by then
the tape dispenser was empty
proving that obsolescence
comes
for us moderns
in many shapes and sizes
