A book keeps falling off the shelf.
No one knows why.
It says it’s searching for something.

The onion said she never meant to get pregnant.
But the sprouting was unstoppable…The drawer knew before she did.

It’s just not cooperating.

She only wore the red shoes when she wanted to forget.
They remembered for her.

The teaspoon was last seen by the marmalade jar.
No one speaks of what it saw there.
