Is It Too Trite

to write about My Old Bike

getting thrown out in the trash

along with My Cross Country Skis

Eliza doesn’t want —

My Ex Husband called this morning

promting the question

does anybody still want

My Teal 3-Speed I got for My Thirteenth Birthday?

Eliza said “no” & I said

“Are You putting it out by the road

for somebody to take?”
