tulip, plastic containers from the Economy Shoppe in Oak Park,

Silk
flower stamens knotted together for an upcoming project. This
is the part of my desk between my keyboard and monitor. I was

outstanding invoices written on it, an index card from VizThink,
a plastic cap from a 64 oz bottle of orange juice when I got sick
at the end of January, the cap to my USB drive, the corner of
a yellow plastic cough drop box, two favorite rings.
