705 Plastic Lids

____________________________________________________________________________________

you helped me ignore
a floor

that would have
2 b cleaned

plus a formica counter
w/705 plastic lids

staring me in the face
every morning
last spring

but on 21
come september
daddy will be home

we do not want him
mumbling into his eye glass

goodbye 705 plastic lids

at the recycling center
you will have plenty of friends

    1. I hate it when someone is more esoteric than me

  3. Your mustashe is esoteric AND exotic
    With 700 lids on your head you'd
    Have to walk quite robotic
    And onlookers would admire the dude

  4. This is why God or godette or
    Mr. Dow or Ms. Monsanto
    made Hefty Trash Bags

    Hoarders were created when
    the Creators were stoned drunk

    With or without mustashes!

  5. High praise for the plastic creators with misplaced righteousness!
    But God prefers simplicity.

    1. Simplicity is preferred to obfuscatory stacking
      and, much to the Creators' chagrin,
      the elegance of simplicity is now
      on the endangered species list.

      Please do not remind me that
      elegance of simplicity
      is not a species.
