A Wrap-Song
A man takes the wrapper
And vices it into a ball
The end of its purpose
And to dustbin will fall
The wrapper kept the product in place
It kept it fresh in time and in space
It kept it together and sealed it from harm
It kept it warm whilst it still had some charm
But a wrapper is opened
And the product escapes
The product is consumed
Whilst from this the wrapper escapes
The wrapper is taken
To the recycling plant
And given a new life
A new journey’s start
Funny how the trash does not end its career
Whilst the prideful product
Has so much to fear
