a cadre of socks

the drawer
full of black socks
is full.
and yet, i stuff another
pair in.
three new pairs.
attached
to one another,
close friends.
i need a Saturday
to sort
through them.
so many have
lost their color
and gone thin.
it's time to say good
by to a few,
while others, not unlike
old friends,
i'll try to mend.
