It's Still Life

Stuff on Stuff
(it’s true: nothing rhymes with orange)

Reached in my pocket,
in need of a hanky, and
found in the seamed rough
a bit of carpet fluff,
some sand and stuff
and there amongst lint
and wisps of dog hair
and a core from a pear,
was an orange lozenge that
I have no recollection of.
