Barrels on the curb

the things we accumulated
boxed up and carried
gathering dust
in the back of the garage
after seasons, months,
maybe longer still
added to the barrels on the curb
sent to the dump
these things are so empty
merely passing fancies
flotsam and jetsam of this life
when we only need Christ.
