Ten Pages
by Aryan Kaganof
The first page was a page of Crude Reflections
The second page was a page of Cruel Rejections
The third page had the lyrics to the House of
Lamentations
The fourth page was a page of Unanswered
Questions
The fifth page was a page of Diagonally
Slanting
Sentences
Gradually
Diminishing
In size and
Legibility
Until the sixth page blazed
And the seventh page harmonized
But the eighth page got stuck in the ATM
And the ninth page committed suicide
After reading the front page of
Tomorrow's newspaper
