"A Bag in a Box" (original poetry)

A bag in a box
A box in a bag
I want to create you
In soft, little sags...

Tips of the pen
So supple and sweet
Nothing so dead
As what's risen, cheap
Plastic parts, amiss
I steep myself in leeks
And onions to make
Me weep, and I sigh
At the thought of you
And I lie to the masses
Just to save you
But you got high
And played me,
Just a bag in a box...

I love the irregularities of your stanzas it's amazing really

Thanks, @josediccuss! I really enjoy throwing the reader for a loop. It's the anticipation of the next line that thrills, really. And, by staying irregular, I am able to place words in the readers mind that aren't even written down...:-) hehehe so much fun. Thanks for stopping by and commenting. Wishing you a wonderful day! :-)
