Trash

July 7, 2019

Another holiday is through.

I'm reminded what school should do:

Study of trash, what it's due to,

And its effect on the world view.

--------------------------------------

To begin, we must define it,

Attributes that we assign it,

Show the students how to find it,

So that they all can decline it

-----------------------------------------

Then we move to identify,

The excess that exemplifies,

A modern life diversified,

The beauty we now sacrifice.

-----------------------------------------------

The goal is a final outcome

That warns students not to succumb

To the trash that they would become

If they continue to play dumb.

--------------------------------------------

For, when the education ends,

You'd understand how trash ascends:

Trash left behind is better than

The gross bins that drag it all in.
