Lies of the Keeper

2/21/2020

0 Comments

 
I never trapped a keeper
Nor did I keep a trap
But my Trapper Keeper was royal blue
And Velcro held it shut

But even with my best intentions
I never really used it
Except on the first day of school
When my desk was clean

The folders were labeled
With subjects in order
And a notebook locked in
With some pens and pencils zipped up

​I’d bring it home from school
At the end of the year
And vow to use it again
But I always just got another one.
