Letter To the Editor

Dear Mr. G.,
I'm a sloppily manufactured good

the kind of
you don't want it to be
exposed to the view

the kind of
piles up in a humid warehouse

tacitly humiliated
collusively dehumanized

even that feeling of having price attached
was never introduced

and I've heard the story about 20 dollar bill
that doesn't lose its value
no matter what

yet, here I am 
unpriced

magnitude of my role is reduced to
bidding for detour

and what if
no one ever unpacks my pages
what if ...

is this reticent predestination
my real path
or instructions are misplaced

give them an order

I'm patiently waiting for refinement
Kind regards

S.
