finding a trashcan

there are so many
trashcans now a days.
it's confusing
as to which one to
throw your trash in.
it's just a cup,
a newspaper and a
plastic container
that held your salad,
but you can't find
the right can,
the blue one, the
green one, the brown
one. you walk up
and down the boulevard
searching for a place
to dispose of your
trash. after an
hour, frustration
sets in and you want
to just toss it into
the street and let
nature take it's course,
but people are
around and they
might think that you
don't care about
the earth. but you
do. you love your
planet. it's one of
your favorite planets
after venus. you miss
the old days when you
threw everything
into a big rusty barrel,
plastic, paper, cans,
bottles, shoes
and old clothes,
something kids would
set fire to after
drinking on Saturday
night at the park.
