Minimalism/Decluttering

Leslie Anne Perry

It doesn’t bring you joy?

Out with it.

Haven’t used it in six months?

It’s gotta go.

 

The ongoing,

all-consuming,

never-ending

pursuit of minimalism

is a challenge.

 

You can start by getting rid of:

 

Expired makeup and meds,

Shoes that hurt your feet,

Worn-out blankets from your bed,

Your torn and tattered sheet.

 

Fast-food condiment packs,

Duplicate kitchen gadgets,

Dinner plates with chips and cracks,

Cookware that has “had it”.

 

Tech toys which are out-of-date,

Excess holiday decor,

All those socks without a mate,

Things that don’t work no more.

 

Books you have already read,

Clothes that no longer fit,

The dust ruffle from your bed,

And home decor that looks like s**t.
