Half Full


ink cartridges in new printers
are only half full of ink
it’s a rip off
but everybody you meet is half full
and that’s a bigger rip off
and those who claim to be fully full
are full of themselves

I can buy into the glass
half full thing
more easily
because faucets are nearby
and the water’s free
