"What suffocates the land / In the memory of a garbage can / Memory of a garbage can?"
Metaphor in Context
Memories, like mohair sweaters,
Stretched and pilled faux distressed letters;
Moose's horns and figure eights,
White plastic bags in search of mates.
What suffocates the land
In the memory of a garbage can
Memory of a garbage can?
Stretched and pilled faux distressed letters;
Moose's horns and figure eights,
White plastic bags in search of mates.
What suffocates the land
In the memory of a garbage can
Memory of a garbage can?
