Poem #9- Trash Bin

Why does everyone put their old, dirty,

Rotting food in me?

I don't enjoy it

Why do they torture me with

Horrible smells?

Why put me in a bathroom?

So the sink can brag to me about

The sweet smelling soaps

Going through its pipes?

So next time you see a trash can,

Tell it that you're sorry

For making it smell like the garbage that too many people relate it to

And put a bag in it

So that although the smells break through,

The disgusting, slimy residue

Doesn't.
