what the world needs

we think
of what the world needs.
an invention
not yet
conceived. it's hard though,
looking
around at all
the junk
in the stores, online,
in your own house.
what hasn't
been thought of?
what brilliant idea has
yet to come
to fruition.
the pet rock was easy,
the hulu hoop
and slinky.
silly putty.
you could be rich and never
have to work
again
if you could only thing
of one dumb
thing the world wants
and needs.
