sentimental things. i delete
pictures
with the swipe of a thumb.
i toss out
past memories quite
easily.
a ring, a watch,
a hallmark card,
anything that reminds me
of someone
i no longer want to be a part of.
i take the broom out
and go at it.
the closets, the basement
the attic.
and yet, when i open
the freezer, there are a dozen
or so frozen
packages that have been
there forever.
unmarked, undated.
but somewhat permanent
fixtures in my life.
things i apparently can't live
without.
