Litter


Litter

Gravity decided to quit.
The tossed away beer bottles
Floated up to the sky.
Bottles blocked out the sun.
Bottles blocked out the moon.
Bottles blocked out the stars.
Total darkness.
People tied themselves to their houses,
Used flashlights to find beer,
Continued to drink
And toss away the bottles.
