The Art of Building Cardboard Cartons


There is nothing better in this world than constructing cardboard cartons

Although I am not a practical fellow I was able to work out the flat pack in minutes and was  able to assemble the cartons without fuss

It was that easy

But before I assemble a carton I always caress its surface with a tenderness that is reserved for a woman’s skin

It may be strange but I find cardboard cartons quite erotic

I adore their stillness

They are almost like mannequins to me

The construction does not take too long and requires only the basics of geometry

I was asked by my supplier why I was buying so many cartons

For pleasure I told him

Just for pleasure

He found it puzzling that I did not fill my cartons but did not understand that I did indeed fill each of my cartons

I said that my cartons were full of love
