It looks pathetic,
A piece of tape hides
Torn plastic finish at the desk’s edge.
There is perhaps hope in its shabby appearance.
It is but one of two
Visible symbols that I
Have an awareness of difference,
That I not accept the given.
Lacking enough character,
Combined with a persistent
Absence of any esthetic,
Forces me to hold onto trivia.
How do I demonstrate
That I will not acknowledge,
Nor accept the obvious?
My claim of humility is based on a desk corner.
