Poem - Anything Not Nailed Down
My effort for World Poetry Day
Love hotel freebie complementaries
Tea bags, coffee, biscuits and shower caps
Little sewing kits, and soaps. Oh yes please.
Fire evacuation escape route maps,
Gideon Bibles. Towels and duvets
Blankets, pillows, flowers and the TV
All come with me on my checking out days
I’d take the mini-bar but it’s heavy
Leaflets on not smoking and free-WIFI,
Fourteen kettles, a Do Not Disturb card,
Some stuff I can’t even identify.
Leave the paintings. Not into Avant-Garde.
My luggage won’t lock, it’s filled to excess
Hard to pack an electric trouser press
