Two Fans

Two fans enthusiasically spin amongst

a pile of rubbish waiting for pick up,

roadside.

Through wind and rain, even thunder

“Look at me!” but nothing moved.

Clever stack.

Unlike No 2’s plant pots. Scattered.

Colourful rattles voicing the gusts.

Messy!

Drive-bys;  inspection opportunists.

Recycling on a budget or business,

who knows?

Roadside shopping has rules. Don’t

muddle. Re-stack after inspection.

Carefully.

It’s bad manners to sort, scrounge,

accept or reject – pull apart, untidy,

then go.
