Useless Things Poem

A sink without water
A bull without slaughter
A book without pages
A zoo without cages,

A lion without meat
A monkey without feet
A school without a teacher
A church without a preacher,

A lie without a liar
A cable without a wire
Ice cream without a cone
A dog without a bone,

Food without utensils
A paper without pencils
A bedroom without a bed
A mechanical pencil without lead,

A bullet without a gun
A hot dog without a bun
Glasses without a lens
An author without some pens,

Food without taste
A garbage bin without waste
A riddle without clue
Me without you.

A riddle without clue

Me without you

That part was copied from the official poem.
