THE NEW-OLD CHAIR

Contributed by 03614 on Saturday, 4th September 2004 @ 01:19:08 AM in AEST
Topic: oops



I am a big wooden new-old chair
I am strong and a coloured-brown
My first birth hurt so much-
the nails and small wood-parts that was screwed into me.
But... my protection lies in the cotton
the soft and fluffy wool in my bark-
but... it seems to change from white to grey day after day.

My old woman sits on me every single day,
relaxes on me with the weight of her body
She lays her head on me
I feel her warm hands all over my shoulders
then she dozes off. Snoring and serving a sound sleep
I reckon she went walking again
her daily exercise...

I have a good friend of mine in front
I met her here-
she's been here before me
in this old house, she's been used and used
I consider her as my colleague and my aide
You know, I still look new for this long term
new as in newcomer-

She looks old and in pieces, I'll say she is old
her stitches are torn and her white has become brown completely
I would be so proud of myself-
if I was here ahead of her, to see how new she must have looked
There's always a wood theory-
You look new, when you are new then, you become older and older until...
And then we get thrown away into the trash
But soon- the nailer will come again!

I for one enjoyed your write!
