Don’t Let Go Of Your Garbage


Don’t let go of your garbage, Graham.

Don’t let go of it, George.

Don’t let go of no garbage, Gabriel.

Keep it to be an angel.


Though it be but a toothpick wrapper,

pure cellophane and rolled up tight

in a neat little ball, nearly invisible,

don’t let go of your garbage.


Garbage is you. Garbage is us.

Only by holding onto our garbage

can we continue to exist at all.

Don’t let go of it, Gabe, Graham...


George! For fuck sake! Pick that up!
