Mom took the idea

Of simplifying your life

To an extreme

Discarding warranties for gadgets

T. J. Max Receipts to enable returns

Washington Mutual Bank statements

So when I lost the pink card

To my 2008 Camry

I could blame my mother’s gene

Or the time my Wherehouse

Gift card disappeared

Or my birth certificate

My husband never throws out

Anything

And temporary losses

Become finds

Go figure
