Clearout
big
bulky
cardboard box
heavy weighty
too full for too long
toe-stubbing obstacle
archive of old promises
and forgotten obligations
my history preserved in paper
layers evidencing my life story
dusty disorganised but demanding
faded words blur wanting attention
sensing a shift resisting change
they argue their importance
but crushing and tearing
I have had enough
bin bag ready
I clear it
lighter
free
