Stack another thing
Stack another thing on the desk or under another
The amount of stuff I collect could smother
Any run of the mill other
Could I ever find if I needed the next day
Proper place is over there, but I may
Stop at my comfy bed on the way
This pile, that pile can wait a day.
Author Note: in the same vein of My Porch Paradox.
About the author
I live with my wife, an artist, in Indianapolis. Besides poetry, I like to take photographs, read books, travel overseas, and listen to news/political podcasts, college lectures and classic literature. You can read about my approach to poetry on my poetics page. To stay in touch, follow me on Twitter or connect on a variety of other social networks.
