Playing fast & loose with the punctuation in the prompt at Imaginary Garden with Real Toads.
Bang your dead wood out to the curb for the garbage collector
Burning it would only sting your eyes
Bang your photos of old loves out to the dust bin
Keeping them in that bottom drawer only attracts mold
Bang your old records onto the rubbish heap
Playing them only encourages that skip
Bang those words that she said to the river
Letting them live would only give them breath
Bang those chronic patterns to the breakneck bonfire
Letting them smolder only burns your feet
