Modest lunchbox.
Preferably tartan.
Brodie or MacGregor.
No thermos necessary.
Replacement for brown bag.
Bologna and mayo on white.
Box of Sun-Maid sunshine.
How nice it would look,
conspicuous on the coat rack,
with books in the bicycle basket.
Undeserving.
A lesson in contentment.
Maybe they couldn't be bothered.
Now I hoard.
Tool, document, tackle,
anything with buckle and handle.
Enough for a dozen lunches.
