THE ROOM OF LOST THINGS

My right white tube sock
my Esterbrook fine-point nib
my Great Books Vol 54: Freud
the heron photo with outstretched wings
...and so much more

Surely the room is full by now
a time warp?
a space warp?
a black hole?
maybe such rooms auto-expand
in some alternate multi-verse

You’ve such a room too, I bet
make your own list, do it now
but for now, let’s be pleased we’ve
not gone to the room of lost things.
