the refrigerator magnet

we arrived at the seaside town

after a long

drive.

so we had

to buy

something to remind

us that we were here.

a glass paperweight

perhaps,

a magnet for the refrigerator.

maybe a t-shirt,

or hat with the name

of town

embroidered on it.

maybe a beach towel.

after long discussion, we settled

on the magnet.

and despite everything,

i still have it.
