November PAD Chapbook Challenge Day 23: Dear Dryer Hose Manufacturer

Dear Dryer Hose Manufacturer,

In the box I found

A dryer hose

Two tension clamps

And instructions that told me

To not use the tension clamps

But instead, use two worm drive clamps

Not included in this box

Why would you do this?

~Cie~

Note:

Today's November PAD Chapbook Challenge prompt was to write an instructional poem. I re-interpreted the prompt in order to write a love letter about some very baffling instructions.

Apathy in the Face of the Unthinkable

 

Your apathy

and depravity

Will be the downfall

of humanity

 

Adam

 

 

Written after reading that people had watched a video of a three year old girl being molested by a pedophile, which was circulating on Facebook. Their response was not to be sickened, or saddened, but to joke about the trauma which this child had suffered.
