Trash Day
\nBy Madeleine Begun Kane<\/p>\n
On\u00a0 trash day I set a tv
\nOn the curb and before I could flee,
\nA neighborhood jerk
\nYelled, “How well does it work?”
\nGuess he wanted a signed guaranty.<\/p>\n
Streets lined with garbage:
\nDiscarded chairs, broken lamps.
\nScavengers’ treasure.<\/p>\n
