10,980 tiny boxes

[mtmynd]

10,980 tiny boxes
and those deep holes
yesss...they intrigue

such little boxes - what
do they hold, what
treasure, what secret,

for all has not yet
been revealed unto you
or
to myself...

i grow still hard,
i find you wrapped
in a beauty that
can be folded neatly
and placed at the
end of our bed

while i mine
the deep hole
made from years
of exploration -
each precious find

fitting into 10,000
9 hundred
80 three
little boxes lining
my comfort for you...
