Boxes

I've put you in a box now

and my walls have become empty.
They'll come for pick up tomorrow
and ship you to a home I've never seen.

I've told them to handle with care-

given them a value for
insurance purposes.
If they lose you to the seas
I don't know what I'd do

I don't know what I'll do-

I don't know where I'd be going-

maybe the insurance money 
will buy overpriced biryani
that'll comfort me.
