A list poem: The Sweater

The sweater, once new, now old and worn,

The sweater with your name on the sleeve.

The sweater that lies in my top drawer,

The sweater I wore as I grieved.

The sweater that you gave me to remind me of you,

The sweater I still wear when its hot. 

The sweater I wear when i’m sad and cold,

The sweater that I can’t get rid of. 

The sweater now stained with tearstained cuffs,

The sweater that reminds me of fall.

The sweater that I love and I hate so much,

The sweater that’s seen it all.
