Organizing

Things thrown about
Pushed and crammed
Making it fit then quickly shoving the door closed

Until I have to quickly open it back up again and shove something else in

But at some point I'm not quick enough
I open it and all the materials inside come falling out and collapsing onto the floor

Putting everything back in would take months or even years

So I sit there with all my problems and I start to sort through them

One by one I lie them out and I fold them up and set them back into the cabinet

This time there's more room
This time it won't fall out
Now if I keep doing this I think that everything will once again fit

It'll take a while but I think we have the time
