Not So Energized Bunny

 Oh,

bundle of loose batteries.

When I saw you in the universal draw

that everyone designates junk

I couldn’t help but cry.

Your disheveled placement

reminded me of myself:

still alive but forgotten

by the will of this world.


Like me,

you wait,

for months at a time

for someone to need you.

Then when the task is complete,

you get discarded:

replaced,

by a newer ideology.

A worse,

poorly made model.

Long-lasting, I am not.
