Chesterfield

Chesterfield

A Poem by C Peril

I've kept an old train ticket you once gave me
As is the way with everything in this world,
it's been repurposed That train ticket has a 
new lease of life, as a bookmark 
And doubtlessly the ticket didn't cost you
much; you were only travelling from 
Chesterfield to Sheffield... 
but funnily enough, it's become one of my
fondest items, dearest items

It reminds me of that day you came into the office
And you were quite pissed off, because the
mindless drones working at McDonalds had messed 
up your order They'd given you a sausage, egg 
and cheese McMuffin, but, on account of your 
veggie principles, you couldn't eat it 
You came up to me, and you said something like 
"do you want this?" 

Knowing me and my insatiable appetite, 
I probably wolfed the thing down - a 
rather grotesque spectacle, the juices dripping 
down my mouth, eww - and I probably didn't
savour it like I should have

Friend, I probably didn't savour it like I should have

That was a bite of a moment a whole moment entire in poetry form. I've also got little doodads that have been repurposed too. The wife thinks it's hoarding and cluttering. LOL! TFS!
