Why do I clutch the trivia of life

and hoard like treasure relics of the past

the burden of it all still brings me strife

for who am I for history's repast?

My father hoarded everything he owned

for fear he might need such thinks again;

A wealth of ancient tools he never loaned

for fear of friendly neighbours turned insane.

And when he died, a massive hoard of crap

my sister's legacy to clear away

Everything he owned was sold for scrap

and all the things he prized most thrown away.

 What will my children think when I am gone;

 and who would want my paintings? I think, none.
