<pre class="verse">I went for a walk and was driven by impulse to collect five sticks.
|
||
|
|
They had to be as straight as possible.
|
||
|
|
They had to be balanced as close to the middle as possible.
|
||
|
|
They had to be the same length without me breaking them.
|
||
|
|
They had to have been from different trees.
|
||
|
|
They had to have fallen more than a year prior.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
When I got home, I lay them in a row, asked my question, and, one by one, broke them in half.</pre>
