We erode -
The computer was no longer working - it was big - it was out of date - we threw it into the dumpster after trying for a week to find somewhere to donate it to
for parts - education - whatever
the sound of the screen breaking was the sound of ice cracking in glass of scotch - sharp - you could picture the crack across the thick gray surface - could feel the crack with your fingernail
Eventually all mountains turn into scree -
The pile of weathered glass looks like marbles - it feels like marbles - like an oddly smooth skin
colorful skin - breaking skin - the remnants of oceans
why do we come here - why do we roll around in these piles of glass what good does it do to stare into the compactor - the dump is not a place for us we are attempting to not be trash
The rubble will hold -
The broken computer still houses the memories of what it was - if there were a way to turn it on it would still window itself would probably even bring up the last file
like a basement in flood - the molding folder would open with a resounding crack
inside a map of what once was - topographical and emotional - green and fading and barely legible - it would smell like moths - you could plant it in the ground and it would grow another mountain
