This is a poem inspired by Sarah Kay's "questions and answers in no particular order" from her book - No Matter The Wreckage.
Questions and answers, in no particular order.
Will it snow tomorrow?
The pieces of a jigsaw.
But when will it happen?
Never, always. Sometime in between.
Does it hurt when I press?
A heart beats slower when it's missing a piece.
Do you know the answer?
Pretending is as good as anything.
How was your day?
The leaves fall only to be crunched.
What do you want to be when you grow up?
The clock is shivering.
Do you believe in G-d?
Relentlessly.
