I let myself 
REGROUP today
& the
PLAN
is to tackle the other closet

I don't WANT to 
BUT 
I have clothes that
NEED to HANG
SOMEWHERE 

I haven't been in there in a while 
I THINK it's 
MOSTLY 
dressy
STUFF from when the
CLOSET flooded
the OTHER closet

it's FULL of 
STUFF I probably won't want to get rid of
BUT which 
CLEARLY I have NO
NEED of

SO
it's a COLD HARD TRUTH

I don't expect to clear the closet
I ONLY 
NEED to make ROOM for LIKE twenty-five-ish
PIECES of clothing 

BUT 
ANYTHING else 
I can get rid of
is a WIN

I am REALLY hoping 
I set myself up for success with this one

there's this
ALSO KINDA INSIDIOUS 
THING
about STUFF 

EVERYTHING 
CONNECTS 

I don't know if I want to keep things
there's a WAY 
in which
BUT 
there's a MOMENTO
QUALITY 

AND
I TOTALLY GET
WHAT
Mari Kondo 
MEANS 

YOU have objects that SPARK 
SOMETHING in you
that's WORTH sparking
JOY is an oversimplication

when I LOOK at it 
when I USE it, whatever, ya know 
it pulls up
A FILE 
AN EXPERIENCE 

I LEARNED a LOT of GOOD STUFF 
cleaning out my mom's house 
that are RELATED to part two of stuff/ kondo 

if you bought the magazine 
& you've had the magazine 
& you haven't read the magazine in the ensuing 
WHY are you SUDDENLY going to READ it

it's TIME may NEVER come
is the POSSIBILITY of 
REKINDLED interest
in DATED topics
WORTH
this YOAK upon your 
NECK

my father tried to teach me about 
STUFF 
he NEVER had
ANY STUFF 
& anything 
NICE he EVER got

he'd fiddle with it
UNTIL he
RUINED it 
& HAD to THROW it away
