The Sink

Sink

The kitchen counter I selected was
of Corian, with integrated sink.
I chose it over stone or tile, cause
I liked the jointless look. It made me think
it wouldn’t grow a gap or spring a leak.
Its seamless surface had a clean appeal.
I wanted white. The space is tight. I seek
a softer attitude than stainless steel.

Installers came, and after they were done,
presented me the piece they’d cut away
to add the sink, and said most everyone
will use it as a cutting board. Today
I rinsing dropped it. Now I’m here to tell
I couldn’t lift it out: it fit too well!
