Go down to the corner store and buy me there / five glasses for ten / drink from me everyday / forget about me in the back of your cupboard / or drink from me once and smash me against the concrete / stomp the pieces into shards and the shards to dust/ rub what’s left in the dirt so it won’t even glitter / forget that I ever had a shape or a purpose / scatter me in the sea— make me less than a memory / make sure there’s nothing to miss / a match doesn’t remember what the tree used to be either
