In Her Early Twenties (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798988795834)

Your early twenties

Are for knitting a sweater

Occasionally you'll unravel

Trying to start again

You might break a needle

Or damage the spool

Change your mind on colors

Or patterns, fabric or stitch

You'll get excited and try it on

Before it's fully done

Maybe seeing the potential

Or focusing on the incompleteness-

Then live in those emotions for a bit

One day you'll finish it

Expecting it to last well

Into your thirties

Then you'll realize

You can make a better one

So you start from scratch,

But you don't start with nothing

You'll use all the lessons

From the sweater before

Sitting cross-legged on the floor

In the fabric of

Your early twenties
