the small beauties of ordinary things

ripped seams
must be reunited

disheveled flailing threads
reach out for the others

something like that scene in Titanic
icy fingers—"Never Let Go"
only significantly less tragic

responding to their cries
I sprint over with needle

and thread frantically
weaving back 
and forth

stabbing 
calloused fingers
the tarnished needle

a reluctant hero
panting out of breath
