This really made me think as well. The way you wrote this, it potentially could allude to many things. Even if just taken literally for a poem about the passage of time, it's a very interesting way to describe it. And it's a question...which is part of why it gets me thinking."

- "Your brief and poignant words mirror the reality that you speak of - the incongruous remnants of something so much more, being reduced to ashes in plastic. I was struck by the surrealness of this when my stepdad passed away and we were placing his ashes in an almost gift-type bag in random places, like the back seat of a car, as we traveled back from where he died in Texas, back to home in Florida. The brevity of your poem captured perfectly the mixture of emotions, grief, and absurdity in death. "
