My form is simply boring
I want to be elastic—
I hate to be just storing.
I'm tired of being plastic.
They do not recycle me.
I am left out in the sun.
Forever they let me be,
as such, I just can't go on!
Sometimes I freeze for hours,
and often I am crushed.
As I stare at the flowers,
I wish I was just flushed.
How I hate the garbage can!
And even more, the ceiling fan.
Anything that ever ran,
and how my life began!
