DECEASED AND DISCARDED:


Time to throw out, toss out & eliminate,

Time to chuck out, to bin & to terminate,

All those things used & now disregarded,

Items of no use now deceased & discarded.

 

The old bra, with strap now greying & floppy,

Lace-less shoe, with sole cracked & so droppy,

Books, read & re-read & now no longer savoured,

Teabags infused, cold, squeezed & un-flavoroured.

 

Knickers, like old credit cards, cut to fine shreds,

Soppy old boyfriends, banned from creased beds,

Dress that´s too tight & shirt, with collar now frayed,

Our faith now lost, that was once, long ago prayed.

 

All sorted & ordered, then swept, mopped & clean,

No memories left now & no more past to be seen,

Thrown out with time, all secrets, once guarded,

Everything, tight, used & old, deceased & discarded.
