Another One

by Bill Schott

 
Pulling it out I see a drawer of single socks; 
 
pairs parted when new uses were employed.
 
Here's a wool one loaded with keyless locks,
 
and one with countless keys makes me annoyed. 
 
 
I see a sock, now cat toy, is a hit;
 
there's another sitting by the stove.
 
My reindeer sock is now an oven mitt,
 
seems like one into the fish tank dove. 
 
 
Here's a sock that covers a golf club head,
 
while two others have become puppet folk;
 
there's a sock out in the gutter, dead;
 
this drawer of single socks is just no joke.
