Verse


How I wish I could take,
all my anxieties and sorrows
shove them in a garbage bag,
seal it with a plastic strap,
and wait for dawn when
the great yellow municipal truck
would arrive to collect my mental rubbish
and toss it out somewhere
on a dump-heap far,
way far, beyond the city limits,
out of sight and out of mind,
forever.

I think poetry works better for you than the yellow municipal truck.
Cheers. Well written.
