Garbage MAG
When we were young
we used to help Grandma
pick up trash on the side of the road.
Galloping down the pavement
as if it were a competition,
carefully grabbing glass beer bottles
while plugging our noses.
We would count the cigarette butts,
disgusted at the world.
Never once did we imagine
that one day we would be
the ones throwing our innocence
out the window.
