I Drop My Friends When I No Longer Need Them

I drop my friends when I no longer need them. 
Disposing myself of them at bus terminals, airports,
and other places.

Please do not take this personally.

And if you are a faerie, I may leave you in a bureau drawer, 
but rest assured I will leave it open a crack, so you can get in and out.

This pattern has worked well for me, so I shall continue
practicing it.
