23 vases that were all filled up
Sat along the edge of hopelessness,
Waiting patiently to be pushed back.
2 doors that were left wide open
Had their hinges greased and
Slammed to a rattling close.
The vases all fell off that unstable shelf and rolled to the floor,
But number 23 shattered to pieces against the edge of the door.
Numbers mashed themselves together and created something-
A stampede of chrome mustangs and distracting physics equations.
The broken pieces of vase 23 were ready
To be picked up, glued together, and restuffed,
But they couldn't handle the weight from such great pressure
And let the molecular bonds pull apart and give up.
