Bottles

by The_Sand_Man

Summary:

A practice in describing some things. Used two bottles that were just sitting in front of me.

Notes:

This is a filler entry written while I work on the next chapter of "A Day Between Partners" (should really rethink that title lol). That upcoming chapter is definitely coming along slower than the first one, but it is definitely being written lol. See y'all again then.

Much care,
Dream Man

The blue bottle
So fragile yet able to be dropped
Easily shattered, but could easily crack somebody's head
The base so wide to never worry about stability
Yet the neck so small that water "glugs"
The shape so inconvenient
To never allow for a comfortable hold
Could have had cork
But has a pull down stopper instead
Ever so slightly reflective
Ever so barely translucent
No straight side in sight
Not meant to be carried by hand

The Sanitizer Bottle
Made of plastic
Easily molded and near impossible to break
Wrapped in a lavender label
Mentioning lemon
Still half full despite being so small
Cap able to be popped open
Though never quite sitting right
Covered in ingredients
Yet all so meaningless
Sides perfectly straight
Base so narrow
Easily knocked over
So clear
Not an imperfection in sight
Mechanical
