A chipped shoulder can be covered up
if you always let the straps of your bag sit in the crook.
The volume of the handles will balance out the missing piece.
And if you wear a jacket to cover up,
that will fill the gap even more.
Thick sweaters do the job too.
Just cover and fill.
Cover and fill.
Something can always make up for 
the bitty missing piece.
Even if it’s not so small,
you can always find something big enough
to make up for what went: 
what is not there to keep you as warm
as the sweaters you always wear now.
