I'm Glad It's Trash Day

Anthony Hanible

I’m glad it’s trash day

The bin is full

Of what I once guarded

Like a pulse

The truck arrives

No pause

No mercy

Just metal taking metal

I stand in the cold

With the last scrap of you

Weightless in my hand

Heavy everywhere else

I’m glad it’s trash day

At least something

Still knows

How to leave

    If not the person at least memories of past and pain that needs to be discarded on a regular basis to keep the house clean. Nicely written
