The paper bag on which I drafted the poem!
Every single second of
the lifetime spent in search of love
is endeavoring to justify
one's existence on this celestial ball.
But take heart, friend, sit tight-
You needn't put up such a fight!
For love is that which finds and tells you
that you've nothing to prove at all.

Just scribbling down words on a paper bag! That's true writerly territory, that is! It will be the back of a receipt next!
