Take Away This Toaster of Mine

Please
Take away
This toaster of mine
For it sits
Having never toasted toast
And though many
Yes many
Slices of bread are seen
Are
To be
Seen
Have Been
Seen
My toaster sits
Having never toasted
See?

For no slice of bread
(In their right mind)
Would willingly slip
Into
This toaster of mine
For warped and weary
Sad and teary
Line the inside of
This toaster that
Has never toasted toast
Though still burns hot
The wires
Transmission of
Some toasty admire
This toaster has held warmth
For many

Yet

For no one

Having never toasted toast

So please
Please
Please
Take away
This toaster of mine
For it sits
and has been sitting
and will be sitting
Having never toasted toast
Nary
Has bread any bread
That bread
and
that bread
Known
of this toaster of mine
And the warmth
It may bring
In toasty good intent
Better to be gone than
To burn hot
For many

Yet

For no one

This toaster serves me ill
And though it works well

It is broken still

For broken am I

So please
Oh please
Take away this toaster of mine
