You were never mine to begin with

[Mirah]

Mine
it has such a different meaning now
to mine, extract ore and minerals from the earth
mine, possessive
not the earths
ours ores
oars

You should collaborate with Neon on a writing project.

 

[Mirah]

I was never yours to begin with
yours
ores
oars
not ours
years

 

['Gear]

Equally lacking and equally oblivious.

I just worry you two might not be able to get anything done being so busy congratulating each other for being such great poets.

But hey, at least Jack has your back.

The shirt hangs on a chair
in an unknown location
I picked it up from the closet
and put it on
wore it for almost a month
and now it is gone
gone like it never was
Where did I leave that damn thing?
