Against Pens
because they are small,
and easy to loose
because they common
and easy to replace,
because they don’t improve handwriting
because they never keep up with thoughts
because there are notebooks full of their errant tracks
and landfills full of their wasted bodies,
because they leave traces of our mistakes behind
because they remind us of things
we would rather forget,
because they are too much like the heart,
always breaking down
when you least desire them to.
Very nice Nathan. I'm digging the new site.
