What do you do with a cup that only
Empties itself for the coffee mug
What can a cup do when it can’t save a sip for itself
Just one sip is enough for a cup to be strong
To be sturdy to stand tall to always be ready when someone needs a drink
Doesn't ever think about it's own desire for replenishment
No one likes an empty cup
This cup that just tips over quickly
And spills any time optimism works in its favor
Is this mug blind or jaded?
Can't it see it's what was molded in their wishes?
Something, seen as full, and wholesome
I can be worth drinking 8 times a day
Over and over I’m not just another Dixie
...In hindsight It’s no wonder that I’m always dehydrated

Rachel Reviews: The Spiral Archive by Pieter Hendrik
It's difficult for me to know where to start with a review of this book as it was, for me, an entirely unique experience and one that I'll probably never have again. I don't want that to be interpreted as unenjoyable but it has left me scratching my head a little and ruminating on its content, its themes and its characters.
