there is a hole in the ground

it was not there yesterday



there is a tear  in my vest

which is  really new too



one day the phone works and

the next day it doesn’t



all things gets broke

don’t work



you can mend them now

not buy new



remember how he mended your mother’s plate

for the memory,      souvenirs can come cheap

the glue showed brown on drying            now

it becomes habit, a signature dish



it was suggested i have a little shop

to sell the twigs and badly mended

things



seriously why not

these also have a value



then the car worked yesterday

now it does not



it is a hole unlike any other

it appeared overnight and while i am small

i can  try,  take my time to  fill it up again



with earth and other things
