I’m just a mudlark for you,
digging in the mud
finding things others have squandered
because they didn’t value
what they had.
Coffee together or a fire
or just a lazy afternoon
on the sofa. I’d even
pull up a blanket.
I collect them all and will cash them in
one day.

Oh if only the junk I have was worth something. I’d be a billionaire.
