Strange. Bread.

We save cold toast
In the fridge
With things that

Unlike toast

Do well cold.

Because we make our own bread.

We save cold toast
The way we save duplicate photos
And the blurry ones
And the bad ones

That manage to capture

Something

Of someone we love.

Take our bread from the fridge;

Taste our world.

  1. I figured you saved that bread for the dog so he will have lots of energy for sledding and great adventures.

  2. Very nice and I know exactly what you mean Today I found pictures and was doing just that saving the toast, making collages and sending them to my son so he remembers his life. What a life he had.
