A Writing Instrument
June 17, 2009
Ode to the eraser resting on the pencil
Let the words flow
A river for the wise
You mustn’t erase the past
Cherish each mark you put
The wood grains beneath are support
But you are the head
Squishy and pearly pink
You are not feeble
Scrub away only the grime
Although never give up on making beauty
You soon will create
Rather than erase
Number two represents you together
The wood and the rubber
Nature and industry
You’ll make the future
You’ll edit the past
Ode to the eraser you will change the world
