Why does it itch so
To change other people?
Why do their bolts
Corkscrew my niches?

Their threading
Is not the same,
Though it fits everyone.
Then it’s my pipe,
They say, that does harm.

Crumpled and nicked,
Torn and full of holes.
Of interest to no one,
It ought to be swapped…

…But it is unsurpassed.
Perfect, for me.
