Today I packed your
shame
into a parcel, neat and tidy
but no ribbon – no colourful
ribbon for you, but string –
good, strong, upcycled
string – that’s what we use
in my family,
my wonderful, strong and
beautiful family –
we use string to pack
important parcels
and today I used
careful packaging
and upcycled string
to return this parcel
to
the
sender.
