(Reader of poem clears throat, takeing dramatic pause)
I am a dirty dish
Not a worthless dish
Have been used, then forgotten
All I need is soap and love
Wont someone wash me?
Be gentle, try not to break me.
I AM A DIRTY DISH
But I am not a worthless dish.
Please don't make me a worthless dish.
(Reader of poem weeps gently, openly, exposed)
