Plato's Closet*
by Wolran Kim
If you haven’t worn it even once a year
Please dump!
Piggyback trash after a resolution
Buying the cost of gum not even bargaining
Second hand store
A polished lady says with a handful of my clothes
All yours are too sophisticated
talking about faded designs from a rough time?
Or distorted sewing
Or tear stains like a typo
Holding a chronic disease of no dismissing
Hang on sophistries, a pair
and a pair, on hangers
With Apology of Socrates
though knowing not ever wearing again
* Plato's Closet: Name of thrift store
