Megumi's Garden

i possess multitudes
i gather many things
i sip a large cup of white tea
with small mouthfuls
i am obsessed with small details
the cart before the horse
and i gather, gather, gather
and i file, file, file it down
with my short and ragged nails
until this heaping mess resembles
something

some generations

to go along with these words

This is how I’m feeling tonight, pondering social media and fragmentation and separation and the multiverses that we are living in side by side
