Waste Of Space

There are many things
As I look around my apartment
That are old, decrepit, dusty and worn
I shall hire myself a skip
And throw them all into yesterday
Where they all belong
As relics of the past
Myself included

Dear Rob, yes old things etc but surely at least the poetry site regards you more highly than an old relic scold indeed.

What does that say for the rest of us oldies with still life in us--you old dog laugh

Memories are memories but it is part of life. Good memories bring out the best feelings. Those old antiques in your apartment; with a little bit of creativity can be arranged to become very cozy spots to enjoy. Truerob we are all part of the past. Thanks for sharing. SM

The same could be said for old bad memories and habits! BUT don't go throwing yourself away! We all have a few miles left on us! Take care Rob!

Maybe a new contemporary decor will bring a new lease of life. I enjoyed your poem Rob,
The last line gave me a giggle.

rob reading this brings great feelings
some movies like Flintstones got remakes as kids version of themselves
our past just like those things have value
only to the one who kept them ......treasures

They "throw us all out", (eventually); but there's no use getting pessimistic about it...
