Eloquent existentialism. Something so common is so profound. And perfectly titled.

I love how this can be read literally or as an extended metaphor for so many things. So many great lines, and the poem is greater than the sum of its parts :) Great find

"Rust is hunger with no mouth" - love this line. And suddenly rust becomes everything in our lives that consumes us.
