She went over to his apartment,
clutching her decision,
and he said, “Did you come here
to tell me goodbye?”
So she built a skyscraper of
procrastination
then she leaned out the twenty-fifth floor window of her reply.(Ani Difranco, “School Night”, Revelling/Reckoning)

Nice poem, but why?
It’s not a poem, it’s a song. And I posted it because I liked it.
Its a beaut phrasing..
Meaning is the space between people. Nothing has value, a jar that contains nothing has value to the one who wishes to fill it. What did you fill this space with.
I like the verse because I can almost feel it, the metaphor is so unusual and clear.
