there’s a few things I carry
despite not having a need
tiny things hidden in my pack
but they don’t bother me
a fossilized shark tooth is my favorite
given to me by a child
next is four different lipsticks
all roughly the same shade
a rock shaped like a triangle
I found on the bay
two pairs of gloves
one brown, one black
a limited edition Dum-dum pop
picked up from my bank
a button from my jacket
I still need to fix
three pens
one black, two blue
still the most useless thing I carry
is my love for you
