DISCOVERED IN BACKPACK
Folder:
CANNIBALIZED HAIBUN
There are always those discoveries. I’m rooting through my backpack looking for a band-aid to help some poor soul inflicted with a paper cut. I feel the burn in my own fingers as I find everything else. You want a pen or notebook paper. There are napkins from Dunkin Donuts. It’s in there. I find aspirin and suntan lotion. My reading glasses and sunglasses are safety tucked in the appropriate pouch. Comb and hairbrush in place. There’s some hand sanitizer and a concert ticket for Delfest 2019. I also discover a lighter, a pack of matches and a pack of rolling papers. Well, you can take two aspirin and use a little hand sanitizer but I can’t help you out with a band-aid. Use a napkin and apply pressure. Otherwise just let it bleed out. I’m staring at the rolling papers and the festival ticket and preparing to stroll down memory lane.
