The Bone Collector


I collect bones


All kinds of bones from all kinds of animals


Fossils and teeth and chunks of fur


But mostly bones


Like Indiana Jones


I’m a bone collector


 


I keep them in paper and plastic grocery bags


No one asks why


Just, “keep them outside”


I like the way they feel in my hands


Dirty and textured


I’m a bone collector
