My Bag

 

photograph by les roberts



My life passes through my bag.

A past in scraps of places been,
receipts for prices paid.
A future in pictures and promises
torn from magazines,
folded and refolded into my dreams.

When I sit and let the world turn
I can feel the threads twisting,
braiding all that has been
with all that must yet be done,
and I know the trap is sprung.

My bag passes through my life.
