I exchanged a 5 bedroom house for a 2 bedroom flat,

And there really is nothing wrong with that,

Except for the fact that I have gathered toot for years,

That now leaves me cold and frankly in tears,

Because I now have to learn the words “ditch” and “divest”,

Or “donate to charity” and ‘just dump the rest…”

In the meantime I’ve learned that my new bed fellow

Has to be a storage unit known as Big Yellow…

The name alone will fill me with dread,

Till my unit is empty, or else I am dead…
