THE JUNK BOX

Haveyou a hidden away unwanted treasure?

In an attic

hiding in a box

somewhere in a garage

there's junk and more,

waiting for the day

when its taken away

perhaps it might end up

in an antique store.

The thing that once

used to do what no one wants

and that awful painting

you hid in the loft.

Suddenly its numbers

lot twenty five

'Am I bid four hundred?'

the auctioneer cries.

All of that junk

now treasured and bright

no longer hiding out of sight,

all of that stuff

you once called rubbish

gracing the homes

of the rich and famous.

Epiphany by Gary Stephens

“We’re going to use nine megaton warheads in space and we’re not sure they’re large enough to be effective. Why would you even consider using kiloton-range surface-to-air warheads as back-up?” The answer was succinct. “Because they’re all we have.”
