suitcase ’st-"kAs

(a type of luggage - that is, something one lugs, or pulls along heavily) is a narrow box-shaped bag, usually made of cloth or vinyl that has a handle at one end and is used mainly for transporting clothes and other possessions during trips. Some suitcases have built-in wheels enabling the bag to be pulled along by a fixed or extendable handle or by a retractable or stowable leash.



from place to face

country to laundry

world to word

all aboard

always with her

is her bag

inside her most prized

most delicate possession

she humble-ties it with bless

dressing up naked emptiness

you foolishly mistake it for clothes

but those who know her well know

in her suitcase lay all her hollow



from place to face

country to laundry

world to word

all aboard



label it strength

insult it with pity

fancy it up, call it courage!

it is history in the making

herstory rattling

an imperfect laugh

a borrowed smile

a second-hand weep

a very lonely child



from place to face

country to laundry

world to word

all aboard



it is time.

gathered are these dull jewels

these sharp tools

the finest gems of void

that rarity that is never sought out

that cursed curse that brought doubt

and although tried and unfortunate

it is by this void she knows joy



she humbly ties it with bless

naked empty, she’ll dress

yes, new land she’ll always embrace

but always by hand, her hollow suitcase
