the change jar

the change jar
on the counter, 
where i empty my pockets
at the end
of a day, 
is a blue glass
orb
full of change,
of course.
all sorts,
but other things too.
a marble,
a ring,
several screws
and backs of earrings.
paper clips,
stamps,
rubber bands,
and sticks
of gum.
a small tube of glue.
aspirins?
maybe.
the bank teller loves
me,
when i haul it all in.
