This Poem Is Trash

This Poem Is Trash Stinky winky yellow spots on rusty tinnies Mouldy food on smelly plastic Damp paper and rubber lactic That the mice think fantastic Gooey substance iridescent Cartons glowing so florescent Furry knobs being unpleasant Fingers grubby very sticky Shifting ugly and so tricky Feeling sick and rather yucky Uttering words from the bible Invoking help from St Michael To sort another weeks recycle

Your title caught my attention! I figured by trash you meant horrible... he he. Sorting recycling can be a real pain in the keaster... I sympathize. Loved how different this was... very inventive piece.
