your favorite drawer

the drawer is full
of all the things that
you don't have a place for.
no separate draw
for rubber bands,
or safety pins, needle
and thread,
scotch tape. it's
a jumbled mess of sharp
and dull. razor blades
and matches from
the restaurant down
the street next to
free rolling batteries
all double A.
there's white glue and white
out. there's nails
and screws,
spare keys, spare change,
loose ends of so
many things you may
never use. it's your
favorite drawer
in the house.
